Celebrating Conichalcite
Often overlooked by collectors, Conichalcite, CaCu(AsO4)(OH), stands on its own in claiming a position in crystalline forms of emerald green colored crystals. Often times found in association with other copper bearing minerals, Calcite and Quartz, these specimens create aesthetic, mixed-mineral specimens of visual grandeur. I have recently posted several Conichalcites from the most prestigious world-class mines noted for their specimens. Enjoy.
