cluster of complex, saddle-shaped dolomite crystals that have been replaced by bright yellow, greenockite included, cadmium smithsonite crystals!!!
There are also several fine, complex, gemmy crystals of amber to yellow-green sphalerite in association as well!!!
Upon close inspection with a loupe or scope, one can see some of the tiny, individual smithsonite crystals as well!!!
This specimen is simply gorgeous in person!!! This specimen is in fantastic condition all around!!!
