This classic location has produced on and off for over a hundred years. Good colored emeralds are a bit hard to source, as most are a lighter green and not so gemmy. This specimen is the exeption, as both crystals are "emerald" green and gemmy. The longest emerald is 2.25 cm long by .8 cm wide. The fat one is 1.6 x 1.3 cm wide. No damage.
