Description
These multi-centimetric amethyst crystals are of an intense violet, well arranged on the gangue, and give a mineralogical sample of the most beautiful effect.
La Vigas de Ramirez is located 20 km from the capital of the state of Veracruz, Xalapa, in Mexico.
The famous amethysts of this great mineralogical locality do not come from La Vigas de Ramirez, but rather from small mines near the village of Piedra Parada.
