Description from the seller

Watch a video of this specimen by following the Vimeo link below: https://vimeo.com/1223014790/816081bcfb

Scorodite is a striking iron arsenate mineral, typically found in beautiful shades of blue to blue-green. It rarely forms large, well-developed crystals, and only a handful of localities worldwide have produced fine, visible specimens.

This is a nice scorodite specimen from an old find at Ojuela, displaying a mosaic of blue-green crystals on a typical gossan matrix!
