Large specimen of deep blue crystals of Veszelyite on sky blue Hemimorphite. An amazing cabinet sized matrix Veszelyite specimen, unheard of prior to this find. The Veszelyite crystal groups reach 9mm in size and are well separated. The Hemimorphite forms a botryoidal surface with a beautiful color contrast to the Veszelyite. In the upper half, dozens more Veszelyite crystals can be seen beneath the translucnet Hemimorphite. Mined in 2022. The locality is a former Limestone quarry with Lead, Zinc, and Copper mineralization that closed in 2018.
