Limonite is the matrix for this arborescent specimen with spheres of silky, rich green mimetite, to .5 cm across, upon which are emplaced a few glassy and translucent, amber-colored wulfenite crystals. The largest is 1.5 cm in length and is also doubly terminated (on back). the contrasting accent is striking and both species are of high quality here. The piece is complete on the back as well, around the top!
