Gemmy yellow Sphalerite crystals on white Dolomite. These were a very limited occurrence in Panel 18 of the main north orebody. Collected by Stephan Moreton who was lucky to be there at just the right time. Yellow is an uncommon and sought after color for Sphalerite. Small but bright and gemmy crystals. Ex. Tim Sherburn collection.
