of crystalline aragonite, and dominated by parallel,
colorless to light brown to light green prisms. On the
back face are radial clusters of a more intense green;
these were probably formed in a narrow vein next to
additional material now absent. A fairly new find. Some
incomplete crystals, but forgivable at this price.
