Legrandite
Ojuela Mine, Mapimi, Durango, Mexico
Miniature, 3.5 x 1.8 x 1.4 cm
SOLD
An important, exceptionally large euhedral crystal of the gloriously rare mineral legrandite, from the finds at Mapimi of now over 25 years ago. This piece stands out for its elegant reverse tapering toward the base, and for the unusual width and thickness of the fine termination. It is almost unheard of to obtain legrandite in such huge individual crystals as opposed to sprays and thin, slender points.
