Vivianite
Tomokoni mine, Machacamarca District (Colavi District), Cornelio Saavedra Province, Potosi Department, Bolivia
Small Cabinet, 8.2 x 3.0 x 2.5 cm
SOLD
This mine has produced what are clearly some of the finest quality Vivianite specimens ever seen. This small cabinet size piece features an absolutely beautiful, lustrous, gemmy, emerald green, sword shaped "textbook" crystal of Vivianite with minor metamorphosed Sandstone. These are some of the best quality Vivianite crystals you will see from any locality, hands down. Keep in mind that over 75% of the specimens from this find have had SERIOUS damage problems. This piece is virtually undamaged and is one of the largest I've seen from the find. I have never seen specimens of this quality, color, luster and gemminess before, not only from Bolivia, but virtually any world locality. 8.2 x 3.0 x 2.5cm
