Item Description
Lustrous, cauliflower-like florets of yellow mimetite crystals fill a sculptural vug in sturdy gossan matrix and form a very 3-dimensional, excellent and showy specimen from the famous Mina Ojuela of Mexico. A REAL bonus is the 1.5 cm, same color, glassy, wulfenite blade partially hidden in the mimetites. This is classic and sculptural material from the 1960s finds at this historic locale. Ex James Webb Collection.
