Item Description
A classic Wulfenite specimen from the well known Bwlch Glas Mine in Wales. The micro bright orange tetragonal Wulfenites are sitting atop contrasting vibrant green micro crystallized Pyromorphite, as is often the case from this locality. The mine is probably best known for this material, and it is certainly not common to find on the market (especially outside of the UK). I have photographed the crystals under the microscope to better illustrate their quality. A nice representative piece of this colorful association.
