Two tiny (about 0.8 mm) Galena crystals, surrounded by Dawsonite crystals. Note the surface features (etching ?) on the Galenas and especially the reflection of some Dawsonite crystals in the lustrous face of the left Galena crystal. The overall mauve colouration is due to the druze of tiny Fluorite crystals. Bill Lechner specimen and photo.
