Legrandite

A gorgeous small miniature with an arch of lemon yellow prismatic Legrandite on a thin sliver of the typical iron gossan from the wider area. It is extremely likely that this specimen finds its origin in the famous Ojuela mine, as everything matches. Legrandite is one of the most famous minerals found here and, while it is known from a hand full of other places around the world, only the Ojuela mine and the type locality Flor de Peña Mine have produced such vibrant and sizeable crystals of this zinc arsenate.
