Satiny spheres of yellow Mimetite and clear Calcite crystals on a reddish brown limonite matrix. Loads of great crystals all over with big, lustrous Calcite crystals to 1.8cm in size. Many of the Calcite cover the Mimetite and have inclusions of Mimetite inside! Good crystals on both sides, and there is also a black mineral present in areas (Plattnerite?). Recently mined in 2020 in Santa Eulalia. Valued at $200.
