stilpnomelane crystals in radiating habbit

We brought home many examples of stilpnomelane crystals in radiating habbit.
One of those rocks has what appear to be green crystals.
This was an incredibly difficult specimen to get a decent picture of.
My question is. . . Is the green also stilpnomelane or a different mineral?

I read where stilpnomelane can be green.
And in your last pic the green spots appear to display a radiating habbit as well,
but it could be a hole for a different rabbit.
(Sorry, couldn't resist.)

There's a lot going on in that rock. Thanks for the post.
