Gypsum

Unknown Owner
A large cluster of bladed gypsum crystals without matrix. Minimal damage present, in good condition. This is classic material for the species and locality. The white edges on these crystals were produced by taking a blowtorch or something similar to the edges of the crystals. This technique has been used for many, many years.
