A highly translucent to transparent gypsum crystal, forming a pronounced 'butterfly' twin. Scattered clay and soil inclusions are quite typical for this locality, known for its striking (and sometimes quite weird) twinned gypsum crystals. Recall that gypsum is a soft mineral; the minor, scattered bruises on this specimen are not an issue.
