While I was going through another flat of rocks I purchased, I discovered yet another unique and interest mineral.
Unfortunately the camera doesn't do it justice. It actually looks fuzzy and green. But when I put it under the stereo-scope; WOW
It's called Botroidal Millerite. I only wish I had a way to show the 3d effect I see when I'm looking through both lenses. It looks like needles of pyrite.
The term botroidal refers to minerals that have a nodular or bumpy look to it.
looking atthe first picture; one can notice a small white dot. It is a small calcite crystal cluster.
This one is definitely going home with me.
