Blocky, pseudohexagonal, 0.5mm crystal of langite recovered from an oxidized vein in the mine. Collected 16th July, 2011. Photo taken with Panasonic Lumix FZ18 and Raynox MSN202. 3 images stacked using CombineZP. Originally thought to be wroewolfeite, I have compared this crystal with langite found on the dumps and they appear identical.
