Locality: Red Cloud Mine, Silver District, Trigo Mts, La Paz Co., Arizona, USA
A composite Red Cloud wulfenite crystal, 1.2 cm wide, on a fragment of matrix encrusted with minute wulfenites. It looks like a twin on (110) but the actual twinning is on (001) and the individual behind the main crystal might be such a twin. Collection and photo, T. Peterson.
