Item Description
A showy and excellent mimetite from the famous late 1960s find at San Pedro Corralitos, Mexico. Lustrous, translucent, yellow-orange botryoids totally cover the thin, sturdy, curved, gossan matrix. Nearly pristine, with only the most trivial bruising and perphery wear. Highly representative, classic material from this ONE TIME ONLY find in 1968 which is still today in high demand. Valued $750. Ex Robert Whitmore Collection.
