This LARGE SPECIMEN is one of the biggest plates recovered in good condition! It has dozens of lustrous and translucent, butterscotch-colored wulfenite crystals, to 1.25 cm in length. Some crystals are tapered (elongated "cubic" with blunt tips), a very few are bi-pyramidal, and some are doubly terminated. They are all perched on a thin crust of grayish-green mimetite upon a really well-trimmed, showy matrix plate.
