A great example of this classic wulfenite and mimetite combo from the famous Ojuela Mine. Minor calcite is present as well. Green botryoidal mimetite provides a nice contrast for the lustrous blocky wulfenite crystals, all on the characteristic gossan matrix. I note one spot of damage to the wulfenites on the display face, in otherwise good condition with sharp terminations and edges. There is also some crystallization present on the backside.
