Hydrozincite
Muqiaomian Sn Deposit, Pinggui District, Hezhou Pref.
Guangxi Province, China
5.6 x 4.5 x 3.3 CM (cabinet)
price: $390
Spring 2019
From the one time find over a decade ago that produced some of the worlds best ever Hydrozincites. This is a very well formed example with perfect form and fine luster. Hydrozincite is not normally thought of as an esthetic mineral but this is certainly very attractive. These were at first mistaken for Aragonite with odd luster but on closer study proved to be much rarer and with amazing quality. We have not seen any like this for sale in years.
