Rosasite is relatively uncommon from the Mina Ojuela of Mexico and to find an excellent example is rare, indeed. Intensely blue-green, velvety botryoids of rosasite, with entrancing lighter highlights, richly and thickly cover the sturdy gossan matrix on this fine specimen from a new find. A nested vug holds very glassy, flattened, colorless calcite rhombs.
