This is a lovely single elongated crystal of Ettringite with a very nice unusual tapering to it. The first couple of mm into the crystal is clear and then it starts getting the light canary yellow Ettringite colour. Good lustre with a 'soft' looking feel to the piece. There is a slight abrasion at the base of the crystal where it came off the matrix.
