Description

Very rich specimen with spiky yellow mimetite crystals of prismatic development, combined with hexagonal dipyramids that produce striated prism faces and give the appearance of nails. They grew quite aerial and some crystals are clearly doubly-ended. The vitreous lustre is very intense and the transparency is superb. The condition of the specimen is good, with different cavities richly filled, associated to olive green mottramite and an unidentified microcrystalline species that get pink colored under short UV. 

Ex Visser collection #285.
