These large, fine mimetite crystals caused quite a stir when they came out in China a few years ago. For form and size, they really are quite impressive. This specimen features three fine crystals to 1.6 cm. It can be trimmed should you wish a smaller specimen overall. 11 x 5.5 x 4 cm

Flattened Cerussite crystals with an intense yellow color and green inclusions of Pyromorphite. Due to its color we had doubts if it was Cerussite. Another sample from the same pocket has been analyzed.
