Schallerite



A close-up view of the vuggy schallerite in specimen FMM-7830.  Some of the schallerite lining these vugs resembles solution remnants, but other parts appear to be aggregates of small, well-formed crystals that await study and photomicrography.  The field of view measures about 26 mm vertically.
