Description

This one is sweet, almost like a miniature landscape of hills carpeted in bright pink, with spots of green. The cobaltoan dolomite crystals are lustrous and sparkle brilliantly. They are gorgeous with a bit of magnification with a hand lens, and an intense pink. The associated malachite crystals are a rich green – hard to tell if they are feathery in nature or incomplete, but what they add when looking without magnification is attractive colour contrast. In excellent condition, a couple of minor missing crystals, not distracting. A beautiful, colourful specimen.
