A really rich specimen for this material, which has been trickling out the last 2 years. However, most of them , all I have seen certainly, have much smaller botryoidal balls of shattuckite and thus less impact and significance. This is hands down the best I have in the collection in terms of significance, therefore. 3.8 x 3.5 x 2.2 cm
