Item Description

A dramatic and rare pseudomorph from Mina Ojuela. Goethite pseudomorphed a striking diverging spray of slender anhydrite blades. The nubby rust-red and burnt-orange limonite overcoat really adds panache to this excellent piece. The broken pseudos reveal the metallic goethite and the hollow nature of the pseudos. Very nifty. A real and RARE bonus is the preferential rich sprinkling of tiny, gemmy, scintillating, yellow-green, adamite crystals on the backside. Choice pseudomorph material from the Dave Stoudt Mexico Collection
