Vanadinite from Mibladen, Mibladen Mining District, Midelt Province, Drâa-Tafilalet Region, Morocco

An extraordinary deep red-orange vanadinite from Mibladen, Morocco. These are the largest crystals I’ve ever had the incredible luck to find directly at the source. They boast an exceptional size and a truly remarkable, substantial thickness for the specie with rich luster.
