Description

Very nice old time classic from the Commercial Cramer Mine, Mimbres mines group: orange-brown to brown crystalline crusts of descloizite on matrix, allegedly pseudomorphing vanadinite (hardly to verify with a 10 x lens, but there are some prismatic shaped forms present that are encrusted by descloizite). Comes with nice old label.
