PSEUDOMALACHITE with Wulfenite?  Palermo Mine, Groton, NH
1 mm green ball
 Species:           PSEUDOMALACHITE with Wulfenite?
Locality:         Palermo Mine, Groton, NH
Specimen Size: 1 mm green ball

Notes: The pseudomalachite and wulfenite are visual identifications by Bob. [tm] I am quite skeptical of the wulfenite, and think malachite should be considered for the green ball.
