Smithsonite

Unknown Owner
Green translucent crystallized smithsonite covering all sides of this brecciated matrix. This is quite good for the species for this Moroccan locality normally known for its fine azurite. These are quite old and I believe came out of the ground during the early 1980s. Minimal damage as seen.
