417g Acicular Brochantite & Atacamite 6 pcs Minerals - Ojuela Mine L167
This lot is a fantastic representation of secondary copper mineral crystallization in the oxidation zone of the Ojuela Mine. The set stands out for the rich association of Brochantite and Atacamite, which manifest spectacularly in clusters of acicular crystals (delicate needle-like shapes). These intense, bright emerald green formations stand out dramatically against the dark ferruginous matrix (gossan) and patches of orange oxides.
As the photographs reveal, this 6 pcs lot (total weight 417 grams / 0.92 lbs) includes a large main specimen covered by an extensive mineral crust, accompanied by five smaller pieces where amazing cavities and valleys lined with these fragile green needles can be appreciated. It is a set of high aesthetic level, ideal for collectors looking for very defined crystallizations under a loupe or microscope and who appreciate the paragenesis of these two copper minerals.
