Dolomite, Hemimorphite, Mimetite
San Antonio Mine (San Antonio el Grande Mine), East Camp, Santa Eulalia District, Mun. de Aquiles Serdán, Chihuahua, Mexico
148.0 x 80.0 x 40.0 mm

Striking specimen of opaque cream-colored rhombs of Dolomite to 2.1 cm nicely perched on limonitic matrix. The Calcite crystals partly engulf glassy Hemimorphite crystals to 1 cm in length. Translucent yellowish Mimetite in spherical crystal aggregates to 3 mm are perched on both Hemimorphite and Calcite crystals. Some Hemimorphite crystals are broken where they emerge from the enclosing Calcite crystals, but they are not distracting. Otherwise, there is no damage. (Author: GneissWare)
