Hi Don,
I have never seen this color and habit from Los Lamentos before. At first glance, I thought these wulfies are somewhere from Arizona (e.g. Red Cloud or Pure Potential). A very nice piece!

Hi Volkmar, I know what you mean, at first glance the crystals say Red Cloud, but don't underestimate the variety of wulfenites from Los Lamentos. Most of them are the typical blocky ones, but I have also seen ones very similiar to Don's.
Regards
Tobi
