Unusually large Anglesite crystal with very good luster and clarity. The unknown mineral inclusions add to the interest of the piece. There is some minor chatter along one edge, but it does not detract from the overall sharpness of the large and doubly-terminated crystal. That hole in the middle is a weird natural cavity, not so ugly in person!

Large Miniature, 5 x 3.7 x 2.1 cm

Outstanding 3 cm crystal set very aesthetically on matrix. The luster and clarity are excellent for all but one side of the crystal, which was either contacted or damaged. Either way, this is a terrific example for the species because gem anglesite crystals are almost unheard of from tucson and this one has color, no less. Plus, you cannot see the contacted right edge except on close inspection anyhow. the quartz association, BTW, proves its origin is not Morocco!
