Description

This is a superfine cluster of the rare and sought yellow Anglesite from Touissit. There is an excellent defined major crystal associated with smaller ones set along the surface. All crystals are razor sharp and mirror bright. They are showing a superb striation and a nice clarity at the perfect termination. The specimen is pristine all around with some disolving structures along the right side of the crystal. A super specimen from the heydays of Touissit. Nowadays very hard to come by such fine material.
