A beautiful and rather sculptural example of yellowish-green pyromorphite crystals from a recent pocket. This locality has been producing pyromorphite off and on since 1999. In that time, the quality has varried considerably. I happened to come across a lot from a recent pocket-- the average luster and color were considerably better than most of what I'd seen over the last several years. I picked a few of my favorites to post here.
