JFD144AO6: One of the first I ever saw in the Bou Almaden area in Mibladen. They drew attention for their crystal size, since until then most of the vanadinites had come from the ACF mine, which produced smaller crystals. Later finds yielded even bigger crystals, but these early ones still have something special about them.
Bou Almaden (Bou el Maden), Mibladen mining district, Mibladen, Midelt, Midelt Province, Drâa-Tafilalet Region Morocco (1994)
Specimen size: 6.2 × 5 × 4 cm = 2.44” × 1.97” × 1.57”
