An attractive small cabinet piece almost entirely covered in sparkly, slightly elongate botryoids of mimetite on a sliver of barely perceptible gossan matrix. The piece has an aesthetic shape and vibrant yellow color with an orange tint with a few small wulfenite crystals mixed in. The mimetite botryoids range in size (length) from 1 mm to 1 cm. A number of small wulfenite crystals are hiding inside, if you look closely, as a bonus! A pretty and aesthetic piece and complete all around save only a thin, very bottom point of attachment. Sparkling, colorful, and a fine specimen from the finds of approx. 2012.
