China has been one of the most productive countries for new material over the last 10 years. The quantity and quality of the finds in China have been remarkable. The finest contemporary green Pyromorphites on the market right now are those from the Daoping mine in China. I was told that the section of the mine that produced these pieces is now closed and will never again produce these superb Pyromorphites. This specimen is a beautiful miniature consisting of sharp, lustrous, attractive apple green color, crystal "sprays" on matrix. A very nice miniature of this material. Ex. Brian Kosnar.
