An exceptional example of the bright blue, botryoidal (grape-like) hemimorphite specimens that have recently been recovered at Wenshan. Large undamaged specimens, such as this one, are uncommon from the Wenshan locality as the hemimorphite occurs filling the top and bottom of very thin, horizontal openings in the country rock. When viewed on edge the host rock looks like a "layer cake" with alternating, thin (occasionally open) layers of rock and blue hemimorphite. Dimensions (cm): 10.2 H x 9.5 W x 3 D. Location: Wenshan Autonomous Prefecture, Yunnan Province, China City: State: China Date: HWAC# 53122
