Mina Ojuela mix with Adamite crystals (UV-active) from Mexico – 1 unique flat
This collection includes various specimens with vividly contrasting Adamite from the famous Mina Ojuela at Mapimí in Mexico. Typical are greenish to yellow-green crystal coatings that show strong fluorescence under UV light, adding an extra aesthetic dimension. The Adamite crystals usually stand out against a reddish-brown to orange oxidized matrix, giving the pieces the characteristic charm of this locality.
Geology & Origin
Mina Ojuela is one of the world’s most renowned localities for secondary oxidation minerals. In the near-surface zones of the former silver-zinc-lead mine, supergene processes led to the formation of numerous rare species. Adamite, a zinc arsenate, is especially valued for its often intense fluorescence. This flat impressively documents the mineralogical diversity and the luminous character of this classic locality.
The flat shown in the pictures will be shipped with the corresponding box and, if applicable, folding boxes. These may be partially used, show signs of wear, and have multiple labels or markings.
