This is one of the few specimens with abundant and well-crystallized wulfenite on cerussite. The specimen is crystallized all around; the cerussite is partly formed as typical sixlings. Orange wulfenite crystals can be found almost everywhere, forming a nice contrast. Such pieces have always been rare, but they will become even rarer in the future. The local collectors have changed their working methods to make faster progress. However, many specimens are damaged in the process. Let's see if this will change again in the future.
