A highly attractive blue hemimorphite specimen featuring rounded botryoidal formations covered with a sparkling microcrystalline surface. Its vivid turquoise to sky-blue colour, glossy lustre and sculptural contours create an especially striking display against the contrasting brown matrix.
The Wenshan Mine is a zinc deposit renowned for producing some of China’s finest blue hemimorphite specimens. Material from this locality is particularly recognized for its saturated blue colour and botryoidal crystal habit.
