Hopeite (!!) (first known specimens from South America!) with Phosphophyllite (Ref: 821048175)

Huayllani mine, Infiernillos mine, Huayllani, Machacamarca District, Saavedra Province, Potosi Department, Bolivia
52mm x 37mm x 18mm
minID: JJF-H4E
One of the most exciting and yet incredibly limited discoveries for Bolivian minerals. Bolivia is well-known for its phosphate minerals, but Hopeite (despite its fairly simple chemistry) has never been reported. This is not only a first-time find for Hopeite from Bolivia, but to the best of my knowSorry. This specimen has been sold. Please view alternatives below.
