Description
An excellent miniature of intensely dark green octahedral Libethenite crystals from the Type Locality at Ľubietová (Libethen) in Slovakia. Lustrous deep olive-green crystals from 1 to 4 mm are clustered over a ferruginous Quartz matrix and when back-lit, some crystal edges emit flashes of a stunning electric lime green. A beautiful example of well-crystallized Libethenite, with crystals of a relatively large size for the species.
