Micro Wulfenite Crystal Cluster: three tiny clusters of wulfenite crystals from Morocco, mounted together on a 1.25-inch clear acrylic square. What Makes This Piece Mineral: wulfenite (lead molybdate) Origin: Morocco Count: 3 micro clusters Mount: 1.25 x 1.25 inch acrylic square Weight: 12 g in total One of a kind: a single mount About Wulfenite Wulfenite is lead molybdate. It forms thin, square, plate-like crystals, often in honey, yellow or orange, and collectors prize well-formed clusters for their colour and their sharp, tabular shape. How to View It The crystals are very small, so a hand lens or a phone camera zoom shows their square, plate-like shapes best. Care Wulfenite is soft and brittle, so handle it by the matrix and keep it away from knocks. It is a lead mineral: no water or gem elixirs, keep it from small children, and wash your hands after handling.
