GREEN herderite from a small find, or series of small finds, that has been ut now for about 7 years. I LOVE this material, which to me seems unique among herderites for color. This is a good-sized plate with sharp lustrous crystals to 1.5 cm and a good display face (though it is contacted at the edges).
