Item Description
A very aesthetic mimetite specimen from the famous Mina Ojuela of Mexico. Pale, yellow-green mimetite botryoids to 6 mm RICHLY and attractively cover the vuggy gossan matrix. The mimetites are further highlighted by grayish, botryoidal goethite. This is an uncommonly fine, older Ojuela mimetite and bares a marked resemblence to San Pedro Corralitos mimetite. The gossan matrix and slight color variation defines the locality. Valued at $500-600.
