I was able to break up one large specimen with the rare green mimetite (that really looks more like arsendescloizite but X-RAY says it is just weird mimetite), to yield a few more displayable miniatures. This was the rarest in the find and the combination I think is completely and totally unique as well as beautiful, compared to anything else out there for the species. This is mostly a beautiful mimetite specimen in any case. The two 1 cm crystals here, flaring off the left edge, are of TOP quality!.
