I don't usually post unknown minerals, and I haven't really bothered to research this specimen. So, for the fun of it, I thought I'd throw it out there for you Franklin/Sterling Hill collectors. The yellow crust is the unknown, and there is a handwritten note shown in the prov. tab referring to Pete Dunn's #14 unknown. His book however refers to unnamed minerals as letters, not numbers.
The piece was found by R.C. Bostwick in 1976 in the Footwall Drift, north limb, 2350 level.
