Description:A showy and excellent creedite ball covered with large, gemmy, burnt-orange crystals from the NEW find of August, 2009. The large crystal is 1.6 cm. Good creedites were rare and expensive from ANY locality, until these orange ones were found in Mexico. Suddenly, you could own a really fine creedite without selling your house to get it. This is a beautiful and aesthetic specimen with some broken crystals. It is an excellent, near floater cluster of creedite, with only a few small points of attachment! This is a very showy, puffball-like cluster of creedite crystals. The creedite crystals in this find are generally larger and gemmier, than earlier finds. STRIKING.
