Description
A fine specimen with yellow-green to light green crystals on matrix from Daoping Lead Mine of Gongcheng county in China. Daoping is legendary for its distinguished suite of green Pyromorphites. Among these, this particular needle-like, tapering habit, at times somewhat resembling a porcupine, is quite rare. The luster on the Pyromorphites is superb, and the form, as well as the varying shades of light green, help create a fantastic aesthetic. Only minor bruising on this stunning specimen.
