At first glance, this looks like Smithsonite for which the Kelly mine is noted. However, a drop of acid produced instant fizzying action. The surface has a glossy luster and distinct banding can be seen in the sides. In person, there is just a hint of a greenish color preesent.

Condition: Very Good

Flaws: Nothing Appreciable
