A beautiful specimen from Tentadora Mine showcasing vivid turquoise chrysocolla in classic botryoidal formations contrasted against translucent to milky quartz. The chrysocolla exhibits superb color saturation with multiple bubble-like clusters displaying fine luster and texture. The specimen shows nice compositional balance between the brilliant blue copper silicate and the pale quartz matrix with natural iron oxide staining adding warmth to the overall aesthetic. Good three-dimensional form with chrysocolla nodules positioned prominently on the front face for optimal display. Minor limonite provide earthy contrast to the electric blue mineralization. Tentadora material is highly collectible for its exceptional color quality and this piece delivers the vibrant hues the locality is famous for.
