An interesting structure. What are the small circular, dark grey, rather mushroom-looking structures in and around the crystalline materiel?

Leonard - I should have mentioned the other minerals present, the golden yellow is whitlockite while the greyish-blue is poorly crystallized mitridatite (image below) - all are Ca-Fe-phosphates found at the Tip Top Mine in South Dakota
