Hi Don, is this specimen 1-IMG_0738.JPG not perhaps Shattuckite? It looks very similar to specimens from Kaokoland (Namibia). Both are very nice.

Hello Pierre,

I believe that you are correct. I have another specimen of Shattuckite that looks very similar. I plan to post the other one soon. I will write one of the site administrators and ask him to make the necessary correction.

Thank you for your assistance.

Sincerely,

Don

I believe all three are Shattuckite and from Kaokoveld Mine. I already corrected them.

This is from the Silver Bill Mine, Turquoise District, near Gleeson, Cochise County, Arizona, USA. They are distinctive.

Bob,

Thank you so very much for your assistance. I was hoping that you would let me know the location of the mine. I admire your wulfenites and photography skills. I will make a new label immediately.

Sincerely,

Don
