The Rosasite from Mexico started appearing for sale around the late 2000s.
What was abundant in the material at first has noticeably diminished in quality and quantity.
Amongst the hundreds of species found at the Ojuela mine, Rosasite is one of the more uncommon species found at the Ojuela mine.
Rosasite is a secondary mineral found in the oxidized areas of copper-zinc deposits.
Rosasite from the Ojuela mine typically forms in velvety, botryoidal bubbles or masses that carpet over a host matrix of limonite.
Rosasite color can vary in shades of dark blue, teal blue, robin egg blue, or even a greenish-turquoise.
Rosasite Specimens from the Ojuela mine can sometimes be found with Hemimorphite, Aurichalcite, Malachite, or Calcite Crystals growing with it.
This piece in particular features velvety botryoidal-shaped aggregates of vivid aqua blue rosasite, very closely resembling a sea landscape with the waves brushing on the sand.
This piece also has micro malachite crystals scattered all over.
