Here is a different one that shows, pinkish "rosettes" of baryte, associated with marcasite crystals on limestone matrix. The matrix is dark marcasite. Attractive! The occurrence at Aguathuna is a "white smoker", a sub-sea hot spring that precipitated light coloured barium sulphate, compared to a "black smoker" that precipitated black sulphide mineralization. Nice!
