A HUGE apophyllite crystal, the largest I have yet seen in fact, from this find last year at the classic San Martin Silver Mine. In person, it has a more robust and pleasant pink color than the pics indicate. Crystals of apophyllite of this magnitude in size were, to my knowledge, unknown from Mexico til this find.
