Descloizite with Calcite

Unknown Owner
Glistening lustrous crystals of descloizite averaging 0.1 cm in size very thick throughout this stalactitic goethite matrix with crystallized calcite. This is in great condition. An excellent large cabinet example for the species from an unusual locality. Collected in the mid 2000's.
