Smithsonite
Choix, Mun. de Choix, Sinaloa, Mexico
Cabinet, 15.0 x 10.0 x 4.5 cm
SOLD
This BIG plate of stunning bright pink botryoidal smithsonite has an almost wet-looking, iridescent luster! It is from recent mining at the classic locality of Choix, where some miners have gone back into the old workings and begun pulling out specimens, a very small percentage of which reaches this quality. Except for one very small bruise, all the damage is limited to the periphery (the normal stuff from the specimen's removal from the pocket). This specimen is guaranteed to DAZZLE!! And imagine what a Kelly Mine smithsonite of this size and quality; certainly no prettier than this; would cost you! 15 x 10 x 4.5 cm
