Description

We have a sample in which we see a secondary mineral found in the oxidized areas of the deposits that contain arsenic and zinc; this time from the well-known "La Ojuela" mine, specifically we are referring to a specimen with a limonite matrix on which a series of crystals with yellowish legrandite shades settle, bright and fan-shaped, as well as other whitish crystals that could be smithsonite or Ojuelaite. A piece to consider.
