The matrix of this specimen is host to crystals and massive sartorite. The crystals are tiny, and may only be appreciated with the use of a loupe. I could not ascertain the monoclinic form, but I did see the characteristic striations of this mineral on one of the crystal faces. Lengenbach Quarry is the classic local for this species.
