The main crystal group is 1.1cm which is exceptional for the mineral. This fantastic piece is from the collection of Dr. Wendell E. Wilson, Publisher and Editor-in-Chief of the Mineralogical Record who the mineral was named after. From the type locality Bou Azzer, Morocco. This specimen is a must have for any thumbnail collector!
