Numerous small yellow-green pyromorphite crystals cover several areas of a pale sandstone matrix. <\/p>\n<p data-start=\"2432\" data-end=\"2707\">The pyromorphite forms densely arranged short-prismatic to slightly barrel-shaped crystals and fine crystal coatings. The yellow-green color contrasts clearly with the beige to light brown matrix.

Specimens are associated with the Beim-Stollen Mine and the historic lead mining activity in this area. The locality is especially known for yellow-green to green pyromorphite crystals on pale sandstone matrix.  <\/p>\n<p data-start=\"3227\" data-end=\"3495\">Pyromorphite is a secondary lead mineral that forms in the oxidation zones of lead-bearing deposits. Typical crystal forms include hexagonal-prismatic to barrel-shaped crystals in green, yellow-green, brown, or yellowish colors. <\/p>\n<p data-start=\"3497\" data-end=\"3672\">The combination of yellow-green crystal coatings, pale sandstone matrix, and classic German provenance makes this piece a characteristic locality specimen from Tanzfleck.<\/p>\n<div class=\"TyagGW_tableContainer\">\n<div class=\"group TyagGW_tableWrapper flex flex-col-reverse w-fit\" tabindex=\"-1\">\n<table class=\"w-fit min-w-(--thread-content-width)\" data-start=\"3674\" data-end=\"4285\">\n<thead data-start=\"3674\" data-end=\"3695\">\n<tr data-start=\"3674\" data-end=\"3695\">\n<th class=\"last:pe-10\" data-start=\"3674\" data-end=\"3684\" data-col-size=\"sm\">Feature <\/th>\n<th class=\"last:pe-10\" data-start=\"3684\" data-end=\"3695\" data-col-size=\"md\">Details<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n<tbody data-start=\"3706\" data-end=\"4285\">\n<tr data-start=\"3706\" data-end=\"3731\">\n<td data-start=\"3706\" data-end=\"3716\" data-col-size=\"sm\">Mineral<\/td>\n<td data-start=\"3716\" data-end=\"3731\" data-col-size=\"md\">Pyromorphite<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr data-start=\"3732\" data-end=\"3796\">\n<td data-start=\"3732\" data-end=\"3760\" data-col-size=\"sm\">Chemical Composition<\/td>\n<td data-start=\"3760\" data-end=\"3796\" data-col-size=\"md\">Lead chlorophosphate, Pb\u2085(PO\u2084)\u2083Cl<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr data-start=\"3797\" data-end=\"3886\">\n<td data-start=\"3797\" data-end=\"3807\" data-col-size=\"sm\">Locality<\/td>\n<td data-start=\"3807\" data-end=\"3886\" data-col-size=\"md\">Beim-Stollen Mine, Tanzfleck near Grafenw\u00f6hr, Upper Palatinate, Bavaria, Germany<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr data-start=\"3887\" data-end=\"3923\">\n<td data-start=\"3887\" data-end=\"3901\" data-col-size=\"sm\">Dimensions<\/td>\n<td data-start=\"3901\" data-end=\"3923\" data-col-size=\"md\">3 \u00d7 2 \u00d7 1.4 cm<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr data-start=\"3924\" data-end=\"3974\">\n<td data-start=\"3924\" data-end=\"3934\" data-col-size=\"sm\">Weight<\/td>\n<td data-col-size=\"md\" data-start=\"3934\" data-end=\"3974\">8.1 g<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr data-start=\"3975\" data-end=\"4008\">\n<td data-start=\"3975\" data-end=\"3989\" data-col-size=\"sm\">Specimen size<\/td>\n<td data-col-size=\"md\" data-start=\"3989\" data-end=\"4008\">Thumbnail specimen<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr data-start=\"4009\" data-end=\"4029\">\n<td data-start=\"4009\" data-end=\"4017\" data-col-size=\"sm\">Color<\/td>\n<td data-col-size=\"md\" data-start=\"4017\" data-end=\"4029\">Yellow-green<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr data-start=\"4030\" data-end=\"4076\">\n<td data-start=\"4030\" data-end=\"4038\" data-col-size=\"sm\">Luster<\/td>\n<td data-col-size=\"md\" data-start=\"4038\" data-end=\"4076\">Weak to distinct vitreous<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr data-start=\"4077\" data-end=\"4109\">\n<td data-start=\"4077\" data-end=\"4091\" data-col-size=\"sm\">Transparency<\/td>\n<td data-col-size=\"md\" data-start=\"4091\" data-end=\"4109\">Translucent<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr data-start=\"4110\" data-end=\"4183\">\n<td data-start=\"4110\" data-end=\"4128\" data-col-size=\"sm\">Crystal Habit<\/td>\n<td data-col-size=\"md\" data-start=\"4128\" data-end=\"4183\">Short-prismatic to slightly barrel-shaped crystals<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr data-start=\"4184\" data-end=\"4213\">\n<td data-start=\"4184\" data-end=\"4193\" data-col-size=\"sm\">Matrix<\/td>\n<td data-col-size=\"md\" data-start=\"4193\" data-end=\"4213\">Pale sandstone<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr data-start=\"4214\" data-end=\"4285\">\n<td data-start=\"4214\" data-end=\"4229\" data-col-size=\"sm\">Special Feature<\/td>\n<td data-col-size=\"md\" data-start=\"4229\" data-end=\"4285\">Pyromorphite from the classic Tanzfleck locality<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"TyagGW_tableContainer\"><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This pyromorphite specimen comes from the Tanzfleck mining area near Grafenw\u00f6hr in the Upper Palatinate, Bavaria, Germany.
