Cerussite (R) from Ojuela Mine, Mapimi, Durango, Mexico [db_pics/pics/mk183a.jpg] Cerussite (R) from Ojuela Mine, Mapimi, Durango, Mexico [db_pics/pics/mk183b.jpg] Cerussite (R) from Ojuela Mine, Mapimi, Durango, Mexico [db_pics/pics/mk183c.jpg]

Thick, transparent colorless Cerussite crystals, shocking in size and quality for the locality. This is from a recent find and look more like something you would see from Tsumeb than any I've ever seen from the Ojuela Mine. The specimen is composed of a large single crystal with a smaller V-twin attached. Unfortunately while photographing, the small V-twin detached from the main crystal and I had to therefore reattach it (the smaller crystal fits perfectly into an angular groove on the larger crystal like a puzzle piece).
