A novelty at St. Marie 2012. Translucent tabular and laminar crystals with a vivid red color, they have a dominant pinacoid with polycrystalline growths on their faces, and thin prismatic and pyramidal faces. They have grown implanted on a bed of black, very bright microcrystals of Mottramite that coat a rocky matrix. The Mottramite, a novelty at the Mibladen area, have been analyzed and we’ll send a copy of the analysis to the buyer. This specimen was photographed for the ‘Ste.-Marie-aux-Mines 2012’ section of the magazine ‘Mineralien Welt’ and appears on page 84 of number 5/2012
