Three very uncommon New Mexico pseudormorph specimens. These floater "stars" formed when dolomite replaced the original crystals of aragonite, retaining the form of the aragonite. Two of them have the "star" form with terminations on each end, and the other is a 3-dimensional rounded one. Ex. Consie Prince Collection.
