Orangeish crystallized patch in the silicious limonite matrix cavities.

This is the first natural silver arsenate, it was approved by the IMA  in 2016.   (IMA 2016-088)
I've found the mineral in 2000, and I've found 7 specimen in total. Since then we broke so many stones before we admitted that there is no chance to find any more pieces.
