An absolutely stunning large cabinet specimen of Pyromorphite with Malachite from the famous Emerald Pocket of Brown's Prospect in the Northern Territory of Australia. Spherical aggregates of dark green Malachite to 1.5cm are liberally covered in bright, lustrous green-yellow to olive green, 2 to 3mm, scintillating Pyromorphite crystals! Spherical aggregates of this combination cover the top and sides of this incredibly attractive piece from a rare instance of professional specimen mining efforts in 2010. No damage and the plate displays well in a few orientations. An Uncarved Block label accompanies the piece. Specimens like this have not been found since, and the style remains fairly unique. This is a large plate with good horizons.
