About this specimen

A cluster of amber-tinted dogtooth calcite points with mint-green copper arsenate (conichalcite-type) and pale pink cobalt-mineral fuzz filling the spaces between them, and white aragonite along the base. The colours are soft but distinct.

A Yunnan oxidation-zone micro-mount with four minerals in 16 g; the green-on-amber combination is unusual for calcite. Wash hands after handling.
