normmcq Posted April 1, 2020 Share Posted April 1, 2020 I just got back home yesterday from wintering in Arizona and am now seemingly a prisoner in my own home due to the virus. I was able to go out detecting many times with only a few skunk days. The last day out, I found this specimen that is quite different from anything I had found before.

normmcq Posted April 2, 2020 Author Share Posted April 2, 2020 I really don't know what the matrix is, if you expand the picture you can see small shiny faces. They look crystalline in structure. As to the weight, it is only 1.71 grams. a little creative photography gives it some size Norm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lunk Posted April 2, 2020 Share Posted April 2, 2020 Way to go Norm! Sounds like you had a good winter season. Is your specimen attracted to a magnet at all? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
