Axinite-Fe
specimen number:
1501157
location:
Puiva, Saranpaul, Prepolar Ural, Tyumenskaya Oblast', Russia
description:
Glassy near transparent large crystals of axinite-Fe measuring to 8.0 cm in size scattered nicely throughout a 13.0 x 11.0 x 9.0 cm matrix. Minimal micro-chipping present, not atypical of these, still I think in good condition. Good matrix examples for the species, with crystals this large, are not terribly common. This sits perfectly by itself for display. Shipping weight: 4.05 pounds. Ex Renaud Vochten collection.
Size: 13.0 x 11.0 x 9.0 cm (cabinet)
