GOETITE AFTER ARAGONITE ? – 10108

SPECIMEN NUMBER: 10108

LOCATION: 
Ojuela Mine, Mapimí, Mapimí Municipality, Durango, Mexico

DESCRIPTION:
An interesting speudomorphosis from Ojuela. In theory it is goetite which has taken the place of aragonite. The crystals are hollow inside, and this raises some doubts about the identity of the original mineral. There are assumptions on the web that the original mineral was Legrandite. But this seems like a distant hypothesis. However it is a very interesting speudomorphosis, I leave you further in-depth studies. In association with calcite. (find 2020)

SIZE: 10 x 7.5 x 5 cm
