- Locality: St Austell District, <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cornwall" class="extiw" title="en:Cornwall">Cornwall</a>, <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/England" class="extiw" title="en:England">England</a>, UK (<a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="http://www.mindat.org/loc-1180.html">Locality at mindat.org</a>)
- Size: miniature, 4.5 x 2.6 x 1.1 cm
- Kaolinite ps. Orthoclase twin
- Very good and relatively large pseudomorph of Kaolinite after an Orthoclase Karlsbad twin. The off-white color is attractive, but what really makes this is the well-preserved habit of the twinned crystal. Overall, a very fine specimen from one of England�s most famous localities.
