PYROMORPHITE SPECIMENS

Pyromorphite is a mineral species composed of lead chlorophosphate. It forms small, hexagonal crystals ranging from glowing green to yellow, orange, and red-brown. These minerals pop from whatever their association may be in a spray of vibrant, flatly terminated crystal clusters. Pyromorphite is found almost everywhere, but the most eye-catching specimens come from China, Australia, and along the Rocky Mountains in the United States.
