A profusion of little yellow-green balls of mimetite (a little greener and yes yellow in person) completely lines this shallow pocket in a spongy, limonitic matrix. Mimetites of botryoidal form are classic from this locality. This looks a lot like mimetite from the 1968 San Pedro Correlitos find but the hue is slightly different, and the matrix slightly wrong for that locality.
