Calcite and Hydrozincite - Beaver, UT

Large specimen of hydrozincite and calcite from the Salina Canyon Mine around Beaver Utah. What I find most interesting in this specimen is the calcite color shift to yellow under MW and LW. Another specimen in the database gives the locality as "Hurricane, UT" - I believe they are both the same.
