Both the Nova Scotia Museum of Natural History and the author have specimens of this mineral. However, good specimens of malachite and cerrusite have also been found. In addition to the minerals listed here, recent investigations have revealed linarite, goethite and several unknown minerals. Cerussite Cerussite, while not as common as pyromorphite, can be found on the dumps without difficulty. Multiple habits can be found including slender somewhat bladed and blocky crystals.
Color varies from colorless to beige.
Twinned crystals have also been found. Chrysocolla Colorful masses of chrysocolla can easily be found on the dumps. Figure 4 shows a larger specimen, with some associated malachite around the edges. The specimen is really a bit greener than in the image. Cuprite Crystals of cuprite to over 0.5 mm have been found.
