Brown Wulfenite Crystal Cluster - Los Lamentos, Mexico #139795

This specimen contains brown wulfenite crystals on a sparkling matrix. It was collected from the Los Lamentos Mountains of Chihuahua, Mexico and measures 2.1 x 1.3".

Wulfenite is a lead-based molybdate mineral with a chemical formula Pb(MoO4). It forms as a secondary mineral in the oxidation zones of hydrothermal lead deposits, its color ranging anywhere between yellow to bright orange and red and occasionally brown. Typically forming as tabular, stubby, or pyramidal crystals, this unique mineral can be both brilliantly transparent and opaque.

While these crystals are safe to hold, due to the fact that they are lead-based we strongly recommend washing your hands after handling.
