A classic purple adamite, from Mapimi, from the now-infamous finds of the mid-1980s that havent been repeated since. These set the standard and are quite rare today! The crystals, which exhibit a lighter color at their base grading to rich purple at the tips, have good luster and slight translucence. The crystals average 1.0 cm in length. This is a stellar miniature for the price range, as most of them sell for phenomenally high prices nowadays.
