Adamite with Legrandite
Ojuela Mine
Mapimi, Durango, Mexico
3.6 cm x 3.2 cm x 2.5 cm
Here is an unusual specimen that appear to be a mix of Adamite with Legrandite on a Limonite matrix.
It has a beautiful large cluster of bright yellow adamite.
Also around the matrix are micro crystals of both adamite and legrandite,
found using longwave UV lighting, as adamite is fluorescent and legrandite is not.
Next to the large cluster of adamite, is a cluster of legrandite crystals,
which can also be found in a vein in the center of the matrix.
A beautiful specimen with a lot of character.
