Well formed, tabular, green colored Torbernite crystals are lightly scattered across a dark matrix. The crystals have a high luster and have likely in part or completely dehydrated to Metatorbernite. The lighter material is thought to be a clay mineral, possibly Kaolinite. It has been reported the radioactivity of similar specimens from the location is uncommonly low for the species.
Condition: Good
