Description
Crocoite with Pyromorphite from The Platt Prospect, Dundas. Tasmania. This specimen is wicked. The Crocoites are chunky, with the centre crystals having a magnificent hoppered morphology due to the rapid cooling of the supersaturated solution. The Pyromorphite is apple green and transitions from a coating through to small prismatic barrels.
