968  Mimetite
Ojuela Mine, Mapimí, Mun. de Mapimí, Durango, Mexico  
small-cabinet  6.3 x 4.3 x 3.1 cm

   ex. Paul Hoffman

This specimen is almost entirely covered in stacks of olive to pistachio green colored mimetite. The crystals are hexagonal prisms with pinacoidal terminations. Oddly, the pinacoidal terminations are lustrous while the rest of the crystals are somewhat matted. -
