This exceptional specimen has a habitat that is extremely rare. On the back, fine wulfinite crystals are visible (with a loupe 10X) that have replaced Galena keeping the shape of Galena. This is probably the only specimen that came to the market.
Wulfenite is a mineral composed of lead molybdate, represented by the chemical formula PbMoO4. This mineral typically forms as thin, tabular crystals that exhibit a vibrant range of colors from bright orange-red to yellow-orange, and occasionally brown, though its coloration can vary significantly. The yellow variant is sometimes referred to as "yellow lead ore."
It crystallizes within the tetragonal system, often appearing as stubby, pyramidal, or tabular forms, and can also be found in earthy, granular aggregates. Wulfenite is commonly located in various regions, typically as a secondary mineral found in the oxidized zones of lead ore deposits, and it serves as a secondary source of molybdenum, making it a desirable specimen for mineral collectors.
