Sharp crystals of Veszelyite to 8mm on Hemimorphite lined vugs in matrix. There are some damaged crystals at the edges of individual vugs, but overall this is a very showy example from the find with larger sized crystals. And the color combo of the bright blue on the green Hemimorphite is outstanding. Veszelyite is a rare phosphate mineral only found in a few places worldwide as collectable mineral specimens. These specimens have only been found in the past few years and are one of the more interesting mineral surprises from China.
