Elegant miniature of yellow-orange mimetite from this classic Chinese locality. Crystals are hexagonal prisms with great lustre and locally some exceptional transparency. Mimetite well contrasts with the limonite matrix.

Part of possibly the best Pingtouling mimetite I have ever acquired, these specimens set a standard as for world class mimetite.

A great display specimen, very colorful and in great conditions.
