Item Description

The striking, incredibly scuptural, sturdy, cavernous, hole-in-the-wall, gossan matrix is partially lined with juicy apple-green, mimetite botryoids and aesthetically sprinkled with lustrous, translucent, butterscotch-colored, pseudocubic, wulfenite crystals. The largest wulfenite crystal is about 1.3 cm. The exact mine location is Level 6, San Juan Poniente vein. The wulfies may be small, but this is a dramatic, very above average small cabinet combination example from this recent find at the famous Mina Ojuela.
