A little cracker of a specimen from the Bad Ems mining area in Germany. The Pyromorphite crystals form a pleasing cluster with slightly divergent form with sharp faces. Individual crystals measure to 0.6cm, and have a lovely lustrous yellow green colouration. The matrix on the underside of the specimen is a mixture of small Quartz shards and light brown 'Limonite'. A fine example of yellow-green Pyromorphite from Bad Ems.
