Mimetite on Wulfenite, Rowley Mine, Maricopa County, Arizona, USA
A stunning and mesmerizing thumbnail of orange, gemmy “windowpane” wulfenite crystals in association with acicular, prismatic “starbursts” of orange-yellow mimetite. The mimetites appear on, within, and behind the transparent wulfenite panes, to fascinating effect. Amazingly, some of the wulfenite crystals are still completely intact. From a forty-year-old, uncirculated collection.
