A sample from the Don Quijote mine that is true part of Spanish mineralogical history and that, by its morphological characteristics, we assume was extracted in the late nineteenth century. The aggregate is composed of arrow-shaped twins, with the faces and edges defined, silky luster and uniform white color. The specimen is from the Lluís Daunis collection.
