132 North Mine, Widgiemooltha, Western Australia, Australia

5.2 x 4.4 x 2.7 cm. Gillardite is an extremely rare copper nickel chlorine halide, found only at this locality to date. This is a very rare attractive specimen that is just loaded with crystalline gillardite, perched on lighter-green gaspeite. This mineral seldom crystallizes and although small, these crystals are discrete and eye-visible.
