Gemmy crystals of hemimorphite sticking out all over a matrix of limonite, with rhombs of snowy dolomite for contrast. NOTE: PREVIOUSLY MISLABELLED BY US AS CALCITE, FROM SANTA EULALIA. THIS IS A COMMON ERROR ON MANY OLD LABELS AND EVEN I MISSED IT GOING INTO THE AUCTION AS ITS SOMETHING THAT I ONLY REALIZED WAS GOING ON RECENTLY. IT IS DOLOMITE, THOUGH.... 8.3 x 5.5 x 4.3 cm
