Large specimen of deep blue crystals of Veszelyite on sky blue Hemimorphite. An amazing cabinet sized, well proportioned matrix Veszelyite specimen, unheard of prior to this find. The Veszelyite crystal groups reach 1cm in size and are well separated, with interconnected clusters to 2.5cm wide. The Hemimorphite forms a botryoidal surface with a beautiful color contrast to the Veszelyite. Mined in 2022. The locality is a former Limestone quarry with Lead, Zinc, and Copper mineralization that closed in 2018.
