Vanadinite from Mibladen, Morocco

This is one of several new specimens we have from African locations.  Specifically, this is a specimen of Vanadinite from Mibladen, Morocco.

From the description:

"This small cabinet specimen with a central core of lustrous, red crystals surrounded by a fine-grained matrix. The crystal cores are bright red while the color transitions to a reddish brown on the edges."

The dimensions of this piece are 6.7 x 6.0 cm.  There is some minor damage.
