A beautiful miniature with large botryoidal mimetite growths to 1.5 cm. This is complete 360-degrees, all around! It has the nice sparkling surface coating of microcrystallization that adds luster, to the underelaying balls. While a little darker than most, the piece overall is quite aesthetic and a fine miniature from this one-time find of 1968.
