Ojuela Mine, Mapimi, Mun. de Mapimi, Durango, Mexico
Miniature, 3.4 x 2.1 x 2.1 cm
SOLD
This aesthetic specimen features a gorgeous, radiating floret of glassy purple manganoan adamite crystals with sharp, chisel terminations nicely set on the sturdy, gossan matrix. This piece is from the one-time find in 1981 and is highly representative for this very desirable manganoan-adamite species (erroneously once thought to be cobaltoan). Ex. Jaime Bird Collection.
