Description
Cabinet size blue and green specimen with teal color as well. Fuzzy botryoidal cornetite specimen that is lightly dusty with green malachite. Very sparkly when light is shown on it.
The find is from the 1960s or 70s and then was packed up in old newspaper in Belgium shortly after the find.
From Will Larson "For its size one of the top specimens of cornetite in private collections. Really great luster and amazing colors. Some minor damage on the periphery but typical for the species as it's botryoidal"
