A superb specimen of rich blue veszelyite crystals from Laochang ore field (Laochang Mine), Yunnan, China. Veszelyite is a rare phosphate, only found in a few places worldwide. The crystals are very well shaped and sharp. They form radial sprays. They have a saturated royal-blue color. They are with a good translucence and gemminess combined with a strong sparkling luster. The white base gives a strong contrast. The quality rivals the specimens from the famous Black Pine Mine, Montana, USA. In very good condition – some small contacts, mainly at the outside edges. On acrylic base.
Magnificent veszelyite!
