Description

This outstanding and very rich sample comes from a unique finding which had produced several beautiful specimens, which I made in 2002, in the dump, which was later almost completely removed and no longer accessible, of the small mine, which probably gave the most beautiful and rich samples of this rare species. I've found a few weeks ago, with much surprise, together with a few others, of a little lower quality, in an old forgotten box in my warehouse.
