Interesting and attractive Dioptase specimen that formed between the rounded surfaces of another mineral creating this sculptural specimen.  Some areas have rougher, rounded surfaces, others are areas of large Dioptase crystals with excellent high surface luster.  Minor amounts of attached Mimetite and Duftite add color.  Neat specimen from recent finds.
