Two classic Los Lamentos thick tabular Wulfenite crystals, to 15 mm on edge, sat upon a layer of white to cream coloured Calcite. The Wulfenite crystals display subtle 'sandwich' zonation with a translucent orange centre surrounded on two sides by a more opaque pale orange to butterscotch layer. One of the crystals has been repaired but still a great example of this chunky form of Wulfenite crystal.
