Better known for its world-class bright blue bladed Linarite crystals, the Grand Reef mine at Laurel Canyon, Graham Co., Arizona, USA has also produced some really fine crystallized Cerussite specimens the most charismatic of which are cyclic-twinned crystals. These are usually seen as individual crystals, but this remarkable specimen is an extremely large miniature-sized aggregate of many superb repeatedly twinned Cerussite crystals, showing the classic pyramidal habit which cyclic-twins produce. These are cream to orange in colour and in great overall condition.
