A fine and beautifully aesthetic miniature of well-formed, lustrous red orange Vanadinite crystals measuring to 4 mm+, abundantly coating large areas of sooty, matt black-grey Goethite stalactites. From Taouz in the Er Rachidia Province of Morocco, this is a gorgeous specimen of vibrantly coloured Vanadinite sitting on stalactitic Goethite which forms a great specimen in itself! The Vanadinite forms perfect hexagonal crystals which are relatively thick and best described as elegantly chunky! This is a perfect miniature version of the classic, much larger Moroccan Vanadinite on Goethite specimens we are so familiar with.
