Summary

Description
English: Wulfenite
Locality: Hidalgo del Parral, Municipio de Hidalgo del Parral, Chihuahua, Mexico (Locality at mindat.org)
Size: small cabinet, 9.1 x 8.1 x 4.8 cm
Wulfenite (bipyramidal crystals)
Emplaced on a limonite matrix along with a thin crust of green, botryoidal mimetite are dozens of bi-pyramidal, lustrous, waxy wulfenite crystals to 1.0 cm in length. The crystals are akin to a porcupine's quills. This is a very unusual crystal habit, historically and worldwide, for the species. Bipyramidal wulfenite in crystals of this size are not known from many locales (although recently Ojuela produced a number of them). This specimen was on loaned exhibit in the University of Arizona Museum for over a decade until my purchase of this collection in 2008. Ex. Dr. Miguel Romero Collection.
