description:
Highly lustrous absolute gem quality grouping of orthorhombic barite crystals measuring 9.5 x 5.0 x 1.5 cm. Tiny crystals of red cinnabar scattered throughout. Very minimal and tiny sparse micro-chipping present, overall I find this to be in excellent condition. The reddish color is due to the cinnabar. Shipping weight: 0.4 pounds.
