Hoppered floater crystal of heart shaped cerussite from this classic locality. Perfectly lustrous and crystallised all around. The crystal displays a hopper visible on one side. No visible contact points anywhere, whereas growth patterns are clearly evident.
In excellent conditions, I was lucky enough to find it in Tucson 2018. Cerussite from this mine is very rare to spot on the market!
