Item Description

An aesthetic and sculptural miniature specimen with lustrous, pseudocubic, butterscotch-colored wulfenite crystals nicely scattered on sturdy, 3-dimensional gossan matrix and beautifully complimented by botryoidal, dark green mimetite from a recent find at the famous Mina Ojuela at Mapimi, Mexico. The largest wulfenite crystal is 1.2 cm. This very showy piece has just a bit of modest periphery wear. This is an excellent representation of this find, not a cast-off. The exact mine location is Level 6, San Juan Poniente vein.
