A fine mimetite from the famous late 1960s find at San Pedro Corralitos, Mexico. Matte-finish, translucent, yellow-orange botryoids richly and aesthetically cover the front and back of the sturdy, sculptural, gossan matrix. Highly representative, classic material from this find and nearly pristine. Ex. Dennis Mullane Collection.
