ZAR6-1  Zaratite   $28 SOLD

Lord Brassy Mine, Heazlewood River, Tasmania, Australia

4.2 cm x 4.4 cm x 2.4 cm

Zaratite, Ni3(CO3)(OH)4·4H2O is a secondary nickel carbonate, and the best examples come from the Lord Brassy Mine in Tasmania.  This specimen features a bright green, bubbly coating of Zaratite.  At 60 x under the microscope, I believe I can spot a few crystal faces, but most of the green coating is devoid of faces.
