Equant, smoky-grey Cerussite crystals to over 2 cm richly cover a somewhat circular and slightly concave matrix of massive, bright silver Galena. Infilling around the lustrous and glassy Cerussite crystals are sub-mm Cerussite crystals with finely disseminated Galena inclusions. These give an overall sparkling black framework to the specimen, punctuated by occasional sheaves of creamy Baryte. A terrific Cerussite from the Mibladen Mining District at Midelt in Kh'nifra Province, Morocco.
