Slice of green Aragonite from Spain
PUMI1957-4
Aragonite is a form of Calcium Carbonate, and it can be seen in a pure white form, or often a nice orange color. But this green variety is rarer, and it comes from the Spanish mine of Mina La Profunda, in the province of Castile and Leon. This beautiful green color comes from water infiltrations in contact with copper ore. This polished slice seems almost like the foam-marbled Atlantic ocean. A coincidence of Spanish nature.
