A most interesting specimen of Pyromorphite in that it is from its type locality at Zschopau in Saxony, Germany. The acicular crystals range from about 1 to 6 mm long by 1 mm wide and are often colour zoned between leaf-green and lime-green. The Pyromorphite forms a rich and attractive coverage either side of the vuggy, crystalline Baryte matrix.
