We specially love the vivid green color of his fine and esthetic botryoidal growth, really formed of crystals with completely rounded faces and edges.

These fairly recent groups are found in several different colors, but none more beautiful than the intense pink color exhibited by this specimen. THIS IS TOP QUALITY! The botryoids are extremely lustrous, translucent, and reach 2.0 cm across. Both vivid and bright! 8.8 x 4.9 x 4.4 cm

The sample is especially elegant, cleanly liberated of its rocky matrix. Globular crystals and botryoidal growth form a very esthetic ensemble, having a very deep color and an excellent luster. It’s from a locality that, even being popular, is not well known for specimens of such quality.

Large specimen of attractive lilac-purple botryoidal smithsonite on matrix. This cluster is well crystallized, with few internal flaws commonly found on Mexican smithsonite. No damage. This is one of the largest specimens I have had from this locality. Overall size of mineral specimen: 11x8x4 cm. Size of individual crystals: 5-15 mm.
