A large and attractive specimen with hemispheres of powder-blue, translucent, botryoidal hemimorphite to about 1.5 cm. The quality is unusually fine for color and translucence, and the ball size is quite big for this locality, making the piece fairly good. From the well-known Tucson collection of 40-year collector, Harold Urish.
