A showy and excellent, old-time Broken Hill specimen of lustrous, brown, cauliflower-like pyromorphite bundles on massive galena matrix. The specimen comes in an OLD Smithsonian Museum glass-covered box. This Dr. Gary Hansen piece has a Hansens Hut label, which dates from the 1960s to early 1970s. The minor damage is certainly not detracting or very noticeable on this fine old piece. 9.3 x 5.7 x 4.5 cm
