NT92AL5: Centered aggregates of acicular Pyromorphite crystals, with a very vivid green color and good luster. The specimen, from a time period and locality that is historic for both Spanish and European mineralogy, exhibits the most classic habit for this deposit. These specimens are very difficult to obtain because, having only been found at the beginning of the last century, very few specimens have survived.
This specimen has been photographed and published in the magazine ‘Le Rčgne Minéral’ number 154/2020, page 45, and the Russian magazine ‘Mineral Observer’ on page 84 in the volume 26/2021, number 1
