Item Description

A wonderful thumbnail specimen of the classic strong yellow Mimetite from San Pedro Corralitos. This beauty has the characteristic resinous luster and the desirable botryoidal habit. From a find over 40 year ago (I'm told these specimens came out in the late 1960s - early 1970s). The largest "ball" measures 6 mm across. No damage, and just gorgeous on the display side. From the worldwide thumbnail / miniature collection of Irv Brown.
