_small.jpg) | Super rare species from the Type and only locality. Collected only one day in 1990 by Jim Wilson and 4 others whom found the new species at that time. When it was discovered to be a new species, it was too late to further collection since the location was already distroyed by the mining operation. Red cleavage of Gillulyite surrounded by yellow Orpiment on a grey shale with white Barite. ex Jim Wilson from Weber State. I heard only one or two small complete crystals were found that day. Other specimens were actually cleaved surfaces |
