On one side, the crystals are are stout blades which have a matte luster and are off white in color with a slight hint of pink. On the other side of the specimen, the crystals are smaller with a more rounded habit. These crystals are darker in color, being gray/brown, and having a high, sparkly luster. The Sulfur is a muted yellow with a of touch reddish/orange. These crystals are curdely formed with a satiny luster.
Condition: Very Good
Flaws: A few Barite of crystals on the bottom of the specimen around the area of the Morales catalog are damaged. There is some internal bruising in a few of the Sulfur crystals. Also, of the 5 stalactic terminations, only 2 are complete.
