Vugs in a limonitic matrix are the host for lustrous, translucent, bi-pyramidal, brownish-red crystals of wulfenite to .65 cm across. Of all the habits of wulfenite, bi-pyramidal is the rarest. Until I saw this specimen, I wasn't aware of Argentine wulfenite as anything but micros, let alone in this rare habit for the species.
