A showy, rich, two-sided specimen of robins egg-blue, botryoidal hemimorphite from Magistral, Durango, Mexico from the Richard Hauck Collection. The old, cloth Bisbee smithsonite label glued to the piece is a misidentification. The label was probably glued to the piece at a rock shop. A bit of edge contacting is certainly not detracting. 8.0 x 5.2 x 3.0 cm
