Red vanadinite on black mottramite on one side. Orange wulfenite and yellow mimetite on the other. Greenish-striped crystals of adamite? Ex Scott Braley. Width of view 6mm. Stack of 90 images (wulfenite), 64 images (vanadinite)...
Red vanadinite crystals grading to yellow, on black mottramite. Ex Scott Braley. Width of view 6mm. Stack of 65 images. Click on the image below for a higher resolution version.
Orange and yellow wulfenite crystals with red vanadinite, deep brown to black mottramite, pale yellow mimetite, and tiny purple fluorites. The larger wulfenite crystals are orange, and there is some zoning evident. Ex Scott Braley....
Red hexagonal prisms of vanadinite. One crystal shows two interesting features. One is that it is partly hollow. The other is that only three adjacent sides of the hexagon have prism faces. The other three...
Dark brown descloizite on a bed of orange vanadinite. Lustrous yellow hexagonal vanadinite (or possibly mimetite?) in a small vugh on the side. Ex Jo Price Collection. Descloizite photo: Width of view 6mm. Stack of...
Orange colour-zoned hexagonal vanadinite with brown to greenish-black descloizite, and tiny white needles of mimetite. The vanadinite is interesting, with some hollow crystals, and others that look like they have been etched away or resorbed....
