A superb cabinet specimen of connected intergrown balls of creedite and covered with gemmy, burnt-orange to colorless crystals. Good creedites were rare and expensive from ANY locality, until these orange ones were found in Mexico. The mining at this locality appears to be finished, apparently for good. This is a fine, near floater cluster of creedite, with only a few small points of attachment.
