Shimmering gray botryoidal mounds of Smithsonite in typical brown, gossan-like matrix from the famous Magdalena District. Kelly Mine is most well known for producing high quality 'Kelly Blue' Smithsonite specimens, but the Graphic Mine in the same complex also produced stellar specimens in both colors. A beautiful specimen with no damage and an old collection number painted on bottom.
