Mimetite
specimen number:
1571012
location:
Ojuela Mine, Mapimi, Durango, Mexico
description: An exquisite brilliant yellow aesthetically crystallized mimetite from this famous Mexican locality. Good mimetite has been known from here for years, I haven't seen many miniature sized specimens in this quality however. Completely undamaged, the piece measures 5.0 x 3.0 x 1.7 cm in size. The color is so good it almost reminds one of the other noted Mexican locality for the species at San Pedro Corralitos.
Size: 5.0 x 3.0 x 1.7 cm (miniature)
