Hi Dany, we won't find out without a doubt, gypsums of that habit and colour are known from several places all around the world, the first that come to my mind are specimens from Australia, Poland and Austria ...

... but IF you know for sure that this is from Mexico, I think the famous Naica Mine could be the source. We often associate Naica gypsum with the giant 12 meter crystals or with the unique water-clear and colourless selenites, but this deposit also produced gypsum of this kind.
Just a guess, but I think it could be from Naica.

Regards
Tobi

Hello Tobi,

I totally agree with you. I would have also thought Australia at first glance. This specimen was part of a lot of Mexican provenance at an "official" auction but mistakes are frequent in the labeling of collections so there will always be a doubt about the provenance of more common minerals.

Thanks for your help and have a nice day.

I agree with Carles, a really beautiful sample from Cabiche! I love these quartzes and as a quartz collector I hope to add one to my collection. Your specimen is really nice, great addition to your collection! Regards Tobi
