AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
This stunning high-quality hemimorphite specimen comes from the famous Ojuela Mine in Mapimí, Durango, Mexico — a locality renowned worldwide for its exceptional mineral specimens.
Product Description:
What you see here is a highly aesthetic example of hemimorphite with rich crystallization — hundreds of transparent, needle-like crystals radiate from several central points, creating a spectacular visual effect reminiscent of icy geodes. The crystals display a vitreous to pearly luster, are well-formed, and range from translucent to fully transparent, giving the specimen an elegant sparkle.
Contrasting Matrix:
The crystal formation sits on a dark brown to reddish iron oxide-stained matrix, providing excellent color contrast and highlighting the purity of the hemimorphite itself. The surface is natural and uncoated, preserving the authenticity and geological value of the piece.
