Rosasite - well-formed, spherical on matrix
Mina Ojuela, Mapimi
Durango, Mexico
6.8 x 5.9 x 4.3 CM (cabinet)
price: $600
Velvet blue-green spheroids on a gossan matrix, the main ball here is 1.7 CM in diameter. From finds at Mina Ojuela, this is super well-defined and a great representation of the specie. There were some outstanding finds in 2009-10 which brought a lot of Rosasite to the market, most was in crusts and clumps of botryoidal masses but isolated balls were very rare and over 1 CM were super rare. This is an esthetic, large and well-formed ball from those finds. A great addition to any Copper or Carbonate suite.
