A massively heavy specimen of pure jamesonite, with flat-laying acicular crystals atop ore, from one of the famus Vaux expeditions in the early 1900s. Rare in such size and richness. There may be other rare species present here, to be identified from thin sections, as much of interest was found in the old deposits here.
