A huge, euhedral, very 3-dimensional single crystal from this important and very historic locality. These crystals, however, were found a few years back by collectors poring over the abandoned old mines here, and are not themselves ancient. Although the locality has incredible importance and name cache in European mining lore that should add value, this is a significant primary crystal and a fine malachite thumbnail from ANY location.
