Description: "At Woodcutters individual crystals and clusters of valentinite have been found with cerussite crystals sitting directly on fine-grained stibnite and galena. The crystals exhibit a perfect cleavage parallel to the axis. Crystals are up to 5mm in length, have a vitreous to adamantine lustre, are translucent and are light brown/grey colour. The specimens were found deeep in the open cut near the base of the orebody. The specimens occurred in a single boulder of sulphide ore found adjacent to a porous quartz vein."
