A STRIKING and showy specimen of green atacamite crystals embedded in and on water-clear selenite crystals on matrix from the one-time find at the Lily Mine of Peru, 6 to 8 years ago. The two vertical selenites, with atacamite, are stunning, as is the large, television-like selenite, with the atacamites visible in the interior, like a garden. Very nearly pristine, with only a trivial bit of bruising, mostly on the periphery.
