A classic and rich display specimen of Atacamite from the type locality for the species. This is an old specimen (approximately 50 years) and is loaded with dozens of sparkling, almost wet-looking, rich emerald-green, rather gemmy, bladed crystals on matrix. The piece is associated with minor Malachite and Chrysocolla as well. Ex. Richard Kosnar Collection.
