A mesmerizing pocket of BRIGHT NEON METALLIC GREEN crystals of needle-like Cuprosklodowskite, shottign into a protected vug! This is CLASSIC material for the mine, but only seldom are nice pockets hit in this day and age. This is an older specimen from the heyday years, featuring larger crystals and slightly deepr color than the few modern specimens which have hit the market in the last decade or so from 2 or 3 finds. There is simply nothign else in the mineral world as vibrantly green as one of these "hot" specimens....
