A 353 g specimen of Bellissima Cuproadamite CW1031 with crystals on matrix, from Ojuela Mine, Mapimí, Durango, Mexico.
AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
From the Ojuela Mine in Mexico, this beautiful copper-rich Adamite. The crystals are very numerous; some are small and almost transparent, while the larger ones have a delightful, deep blue-green color that contrasts beautifully with the reddish limonitic matrix. All the crystals have a good luster. An aesthetic specimen, with a cut in the matrix, photographed under bright light.
The specimen is photographed under bright professional lighting to best highlight its details and color. Any slight differences in color tones depend on the settings of the device being used and/or exposure to ambient or artificial light with a different color temperature.

Seller's Story
We have been collectors since 1972, present as exhibitors at the main mineral exhibitions in Italy and some European ones (Sainte-Marie-Aux-Mines, Monaco, etc.), where you can find us to get to know us in person, exchange opinions, talk about our beloved minerals and, should the auctions end close to an exhibition, deliver your samples directly.
All proposed minerals, unless otherwise specified, are photographed using a strong light source, to better show the colors and details of the sample.
If you buy multiple minerals in the same auction, we will ship them together and you will only pay the higher shipping costs.
