Wulfenite with Mimetite
San Carlos Mine, Municipio de Maunuel Benavidas
Chihuahua, Mexico
4.4 x 3.8 x 2 CM (miniature)
price: $450
Early summer 2021
Gem clear "windowpane" type crystals perched on matrix that is sprinkled with tiny Mimetite balls. Excellent dark orange-red color and very sharp edges on the Wulfenites which are in excellent condition with no visible damage. From the 2018 find that made big news at this locale, unfortunately the zone was very small and soon exhausted, there have not been more found since. This looks much more like a Red Cloud (Arizona USA) specimen than anything from Mexico. On close exam it is seen than this habit and find are distinctly unique and not exactly like any other Wulfenites.
