Papagoite, Quartz
Papagoite is a very rare calcium, copper silicate. This striking, porcupine-like cluster of quartz crystals has many termination areas richly and beautifully included with bright blue papagoite. This specimen has exceptionally rich coverage of papagoite in so many crystals. Most Messina specimens are single quartz crystals included with papagoite. I have not seen another like it from this locale.
