Pyromorphite (M327)
The old note is a little confusing. I know the Segen Gottes Mine from the Annaberg district, I can not connect it with Pribram. If Pribram is your specialty, maybe you can make a rhyme on it? Purely optically, i. e. color of the pyromorphite and matrix let me conclude here again on the Rimbaba mine. The label, however, dates back to 1883, perhaps some of the place names have changed.
What I like about this specimen is the fact that the crystals form small groups and thus a nice contrast to the matrix. The crystals are dark olive green. This is the only piece that I have not photographed exclusively with daylight. In order to bring out the color of the pyromorphites a little better, I discreetly used a little artificial light. Personally, I value it higher than the first pyromorphite specimen, because not the whole specimen is occupied, but also shows matrix. Again, there is no obvious damage.
