Very beautiful specimen. I knew it was from Mexico at first sight, but I thought of Amatitlan, not of Naica, which makes it even more interesting. I like how those beautifully coloured crystals are clustered on this specimen. Nice one!

| I think the Antarctica specimen is really cool. The specimens I typically see from there are from outer space and not from the continent itself!
