Located in the arid mountains of northern Chihuahua, Mexico, the district is renowned for yielding brightly colored crystals ranging from delicate yellow-orange forms to robust amber and red-orange habits.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eThis dramatic specimen demonstrates grouping of sharp, lustrous wulfenite crystals of rich orange color, attractively distributed across its matrix. The crystals exhibit a robust tabular habit, displaying excellent translucency and bright vitreous luster. The dominant cluster crowns the specimen while numerous smaller crystals create a pleasing cascade across the matrix below, resulting in an exceptionally balanced presentation. The vivid color contrast between the orange wulfenite and pale matrix further enhances the visual impact. This is a highly aesthetic Mexican wulfenite from one of the world's premier occurrences for the species.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e*Ex.
