Scorodite (with Beudantite?)
Mina Ojuela, Mapimi
Durango, Mexico
4.7 x 3.6 CM (miniature)
price: $285
Spring 2013
A nice sized vug of rich gemmy blue Scorodites in a hard (not crumbly!) matrix. Micro brownish spheres are noted that are reputed to be Beudantites but look much like Carminites to me, either way, a nice addition. In excellent condition, with magnification it is possible to see through the very clear blue crystals to the brown matrix below! A Mexican classic, these are rare on the market and this is a good example.
