Adamite on Limonite from Ojuela Mine, Mapimi, Durango, Mexico [db_pics/pics/adamite8a.jpg]

ADAMITE8 - Adamite on Limonite
$ 295.00
Ojuela Mine, Mapimi, Durango, Mexico
cabinet - 10 x 9 x 9 cm

The Ojuela Mine is perhaps the most classsic well known mine in Mexico. Adamite was found here in the 1970's and again around 2009 when water levels dropped to reveal the levels where Adamite formed. This piece shows bright yellow acicular crystals forming inside a vug in the Limonite. The sprays average 1.5 cm long. An attractive specimen.
