Celestine with Aragonite

specimen number:
4272306

location:
Hammam Zriba mine, Hammam Zriba, Zaghouan, Tunisia

description:
Very neat locality example for the species, lustrous slightly translucent blue crystals of celestine measuring to 0.7 cm in size on snow white crystallized aragonite. This piece would have been collected by Laszlo Palinkas around the year 2000. I was actually in this area of the mine before excavation, but then had to leave to catch a flight home.
