Description

Dozens of small but very sharp crystals of green Paratacamite in a protected vug of beautiful chrysocolla-infused quartz crystals! Part of the right-hand side of the cavity is filled in with selenite, for added assemblage of minerals here. Colorful, large, and very neat specimen for the species!
