A HIGHLY UNCOMMON and STRIKING combination piece from the famous Sweet Home Mine. Bright green malachite coats well-crystallized, lustrous tetrahedrite crystals to 8 mm. Beautifully contrasting transparent to frosted purple fluorite cubes to 4 mm add to the panache of this piece. There is also a few tiny rhodochrosite crystals and quartz needles. There were only about 2 DOZEN pieces from this pocket and I managed to get almost all of the very best ones. Malachite had never been found from the mine before this, and it had to be analyzed to prove its reality. My last piece (i think), found surfing the drawers recently. These were found around 3 years ago. 5.9 x 4.8 x 3.0 cm
