Spikey 5-7mm salmon colored Smithsonite crystals covering and pointing outward from the surface of a Tennantite after Azurite crystal. I have seen the replacement of Tennantite after Azurite before, but never one covered by Smithsonite like this. Fully covered by crystal all around. Front side is in perfect condition, backside has 3 damaged Smithsonites, 4.7 x 2.5 x 2 cm.
