Orpiment
specimen number:
8033353
location:
Quiruvilca mine, La Libertad, Peru
description:
Bright lustrous orange crystal grouping of orpiment. Shows well all around with very slight cleaving on what I consider the bottom backside of the piece, this visible in the video. Overall I think quite choice for a crystal grouping of large crystals for the species.
Size: 5.0 x 4.0 x 2.5 cm (miniature)
