This small cabinet specimen is an excellent example of Lepidocrocite from the polymetallic mine at Herdorf in the Rhineland-Palatinate of Germany. Forming a blackish to dark grey mammillated surface, the underside of the Lepidocrocite exposes the internal radial structure of crystalline mahogany red with a silky lustre. A terrific specimen with a small card label from the previous collection it was in.
