La Libertad Mine, Quiruvilca District, Santiago de Chuco Province, La Libertad Department, Peru

This specimen has an interesting combination of different shaped crystals stacked on each other. The crystals vary from cubes, to flat, tabular with the widest side a cube, to an elongated crystal at the end which has a cube for the smallest side (on the end). The crystals have interesting growth lines. The specimen has a very high luster. The specimen is in good condition, although there are a few chips on the edges. A note on the location: this is probably an older specimen in that it was labeled as being from La Lebertad mine; today, this mine is called the Quiruvilca mine.
