These classic green pyros are the standard for Mexico, where the species seems quite rare. This is from a famous find of the early 1970s, I am told. Glassy and translucent, apple green pyromorphite crystals, to 5 mm in length, abound on a matrix of ocherous limonite. The crystals are so translucent that they are nearly gemmy. A wonderful large thumbnail or small miniature!
