Attractive and sharp, this Japanese-style fan spray of Hemimorphite is from the famous Ojuela Mine. The blades are incredible sparkly, lustrous and gemmy, and they all have excellent, chevron-shaped terminations. A small wulfenite is a nice bonus! This is a fine, aesthetic thumbnail among the best of species for this style that I have seen or could imagine. Far better in person, as the photos can't capture the sparkling effect!.
