A specimen from a classic Mexican locality, showcasing a complex and sought-after paragenesis. On the dark matrix, a layer of conichalcite has formed, on which small, glassy crystals of adamite and calcite have grown. Under magnification, the distinct morphology of sharp-edged, transparent crystals is visible, which contrasts beautifully with the green coating and the dark background of the rock. Main Features: classic locality; complex paragenesis; intensely green coating; high luster and transparency of the crystals. Condition: Very good. The main display surface is covered with sharp, unaltered crystals.
