Smithsonite, Dolomite

SOLD
Good specimens of yellow "turkey fat" smithsonite from Arkansas are rare enough, but this specimen is truly unique. The smithsonite, with a particularly intense yellow color, has pseudomorphed crystallized dolomite. This formed a specimen of ISOLATED, beautifully formed fans or whorls of yellow smithsonite on a sparkly quartz matrix, rather than the usual globby plate. I have never seen one like this, and it is really special! 8.5 x 5.5 x 2.7 cm
