Description
From the same locality as the other Red River gypsum in this auction, but with a completely different look! The crystals not only have a different form, but a more amber color - and, instead of forming a ball, this specimen has the gemmy crystals capping an elongated cluster of massed smaller crystals of gypsum (this specimen is also a floater). 6.5 x 4.3 x 3.2cm
