Pea Ridge Mine, Washington Co., Missouri, USA
description:
Glassy gem scalenohedral crystals of calcite over the top of the hematite rich matrix. Small crystals of chalcopyrite scattered throughout. Measures 7.0 x 7.0 x 3.0 cm. I think in very good condition with just slight micro-cleaving present. Classic material from the 1970s. This is quite nice for the species at the locality. Shipping weight: 0.23 pounds. Ex Stephen Blyskal collection.
Size: 7.0 x 7.0 x 3.0 cm (small-cabinet)
