Here is a really great multi mineral specimen from this famous mine.
Numerous multi tone wulfenite bladed crystals adorn this specimen.
The wulfenite is a "butterscotch" coloring with a lighter colored centers. 
The crystals have some crazy stepped growth faces on them.
The largest wulfenite crystals, up to 2 cm, are mostly to one side of the specimen,
but there are micro crystals all over the piece.
The matrix, which is calcite, is also covered in Mottramite along with a few small areas of fibrous malachite.
It comes with quiet a few labels from previous collection as seen in the last photo.
A very interesting and dramatic looking specimen.
