3.7 x 2.2 x .8 cm (largest). Some of the world’s loveliest, most delicate Silver specimens have come from Batolpilas, Mexico. Not only do these both have the delicate beauty one looks for in terms of fine luster and good crystal habit, but both are blessed with attractive Calcite rhombs attached to, and accenting, the Silver crystals. Very good representative pieces for the locality.
