About it

A cluster of vanadinite crystals, captured from photos and drawn with splats. Vanadinite is a lead vanadium mineral. It forms in the weathered upper part of lead ore deposits, as small six-sided crystals that run from orange to deep red.

Tap it and a ripple crosses the specimen as it hops on its base. Drag to circle it and look into the gaps between the crystals, where the light shows through the orange.
