Superb, large, vivid emerald-green specimen of well-crystallized metatorbernite from Mount Painter, Arkaroola Range, North Flinders Ranges, South Australia, Australia. For this classic Australian locality this is one of the best specimens I have personally seen for the species. This is an old specimen with Eric traded out of the American Museum of Natural History, where he worked for many decades in the entomology department. Rare!!
