This is a good Adamite specimen if you are looking for well-defined crystals. Most of the crystals are free-standing, vertically up so as to completely enable the viewer to see the rectangular - orthorhombic cross-section and the rectangular, chisel-like terminations. The crystals are about 6mm in length.
