Size 8 x 6.5 x 3 cm - weight 194 grams Acicular Smithsonite hosted on a dark manganese and iron oxide matrix. Rare piece is truly exceptional due to its uncommon crystal habit. Instead of the typical, the Smithsonite bursts into thousands of tiny, translucent, needle-like prisms that sparkle intensely under light. The stark color contrast between the pale, glassy crystals and the rich, dark manganese base creates an incredible visual depth. The specimen also features larger, beautifully defined calcite crystals in the center, adding a wonderful structural variety. Condition: Excellent cabinet specimen with great crystal definition. Perfect for: Serious mineral collectors, display cases, or as a striking natural art piece.
