TB27AL7: A novelty at Tucson 2020: Druse, on matrix, of bipyramidal Creedite crystals, some of them doubly terminated, with sharp pointed terminations, between transparent and translucent, lustrous, and light violet in color. The specimen is quite different from those known from this locality in recent years, although in some old collections there are similar specimens from the same source, which coincides with the indications that this find was made in old galleries of the mine.
The specimen has been reviewed, photographed and published as a new discovery in the magazine ‘Mineral Up’ on page 43 of the 2020/02 edition.
