44017: Rosasite, Cuprite and Malachite -
$8 Ojuela Mine, MapimÃ, Mapimà Municipality, Durango, Mexico Small cabinet - 8.8 x 3.6 x 3.5 cm 119 grams Specimen status: Available Send an email with specimen number to order A 1.6 cm mound of blue green rosasite
(along with other minor rosasite) on a matrix rich with
veins of cuprite. Minor malachite also present. The
rosasite/cuprite association is interesting. Could be
trimmed to a thumbnail emphasizing the rosasite but most
of the cuprite would be lost. Rosasite from the Ojuela Mine
is often bruised but this example is in very nice
condition.
