A beautiful pair of gemmy, blue-green, thin, prismatic Vivianite crystals measuring up to 8 mm sits atop a gem quality, hexagonal Quartz crystal from this classic locality. Chicote Grande is one of the "forgotten" mines in Bolivia over the last 20 years as very little material has been available in recently, but in its day, this locality provided collectors with some very attractive display specimens. A good Vivianite from this well known Bolivian mine.
