Adamite (Var: Cuprian Adamite) : (Zn,Cu)₂AsO₄OH
	Dachang Sn-polymetallic ore field, Nandan Co., Hechi Prefecture, Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region, China 3.5 x 2.9 x 2.9 cm. A showy and excellent specimen of glassy, sea-green, cuprian adamite crystal clusters jauntily perched atop well-shaped gossan matrix from the very less well-known locality of China. This fine piece has a STRIKING similarity to classic material from Mina Ojuela, Mexico. This is a very aesthetic piece, rich, and good in color.

Adamite (Var: Cuprian Adamite) : (Zn,Cu)₂AsO₄OH
	Fengjiashan Mine (Daye Copper mine), Edong Mining District, Daye Co., Huangshi Prefecture, Hubei Province, China 1.9 x 1.1 x 1.0 cm. A very small adamite specimen, yes, but this is NOT from Mexico - it is a rare one from the Daye Mine in China! And yet, it has a structure, color and even limonitic matrix that are extremely similar to the Mina Ojuela ones. At any rate - a very uncommon specimen for a collector of unusual thumbnails!
