Very nice cluster of botryoidal Mimetite from Mina Congresso in San Pedro Correlitos (1968 find). The lemon-yellow color is unusually pure and intense, without the normal orange hues mixed in; and the silky luster gives the Mimetite a lovely visual richness. The largest of the spheres is a .6 cm across. A quality, attractive Mimetite.
