Item Description

Bright yellow-orange wulfenite crystals to 1.8 cm are nicely scattered on the botryoidal, pretty apple-green mimetite pocket lining. The lustrous wulfenites have very interestingly etched faces. A few bruised secondary wulfies are a modest detraction. Classic combination material from Mina Ojuela and the Dr. Miguel Romero Collection, premier Mexican mineral specialist #14525. This showy piece probably came from the 1968 or 1981 finds.
