Crocoite top & Pyromorphite

top A very unusual combination of small bright orange crocoite crystals interspersed with a carpet of tiny green pyromorphite crystals on matrix. This piece is from a rarely seen but distinctive Tasmanian locality. Magnification is necessary to best appreciate the fine crystals.

Please note that the crystals on this specimen are fragile, therefore it will need careful handling.
