A short excerpt from the slide
The largest natural crystals on Earth have been discovered in two caves within a silver and zinc mine near Naica, in Chihuahua, Mexico, according to mine officials. Reaching lengths of 50 feet, the clear, faceted crystals are composed of selenite, a crystalline form of the mineral gypsum.
