Very interesting specimen for its unusual chemistry, this is a hidrated calcium sulphite: CaSO3·H2O. It shows several aesthetically lanceolated laminar to prismatic crystals, well defined, with brilliance, transparence and colourless. From the 1983 discovery and collected by Dr. Kurt Reiss. From the Jim Thomas collection. Note: Type locality.

The color is exceptional in this pyromorphite specimen from this German mine. On a sandstone matrix a layer of prismatic crystals and some more barrel-shaped. Two generations are observed distinguishable by color crystals. Brilliance and well defined faces and edges. A sample for pyromorphite collectors.
