Posted: Mar 13, 2022 14:57 Post subject: Goethite from Imini mine (Morocco)

The Imini mine is a famous locality for its manganese minerals, specially pyrolusite and manganite. But not all and always.
Here is a curious and big specimen from Imini mine (as far as we know) that resembles manganite, but it is actually a nice goethite.
Sorry for the quality of the picture. Just a quick photo taken with cellphone.
