VESZELYITE ON ZINCOLIBETHENITE

Veszelyite has been a highly treasured species since the famous Montana finds decades back, and more recent finds in the Republic of the Congo have produced a number of specimens that have made it more accessible to collectors. Atop a layer of softly contrasting blue-green zincolibethenite, the veszelyite here forms groupings that reach over an inch across, and the individual faces are super lustrous. When light hits from the right angles, one can see the alluring blue hues that make the species so desirable. An excellent example for size class, nicely balanced all around.
