Source volume: 50, issue: 2, PDF page: 72. Label: Figure 21. Ungemach (1911) provided two crystal drawings of atacamite based on specimens in the collection of the Natural History Museum in Paris. But he was as confused about the conflicting locality attributions as most people were, declaring the left crystal to be from “Burra-Burra or Moonta” and the right crystal (from Krantz) to be from “Moonta, Wallaroo”—under the assumption that Wallaroo was the shipping point instead of the nearest town.
