Description/Interesting Notes:
A fantastic example of quartz and hematite from this classic locale!!! This specimen hosts an aesthetic showing of
unusually large "beta" quartz crystals perched atop a matrix of massive hematite!!! The quartz crystals
are razor-sharp, glassy, and range in size up to over 2.5cm wide!!! The crystals also host reddish internal phantoms that
are pronounced when viewed on edge!!! Some of the crystals also host inclusions of brilliant, silvery, significantly
sized crystals of specular hematite as well!!! This specimen is from the personal collection of Howard Belsky!!! This specimen is in superb condition all around and displays magnificently
in person!!!
The pics hardly do it justice!!! Must be seen in person to be fully appreciated!!!
Good luck and be sure to check out my other exciting mineral auctions on ebay!!! STAY TUNED!!! MORE AUCTIONS WILL BE ADDED MONDAY NIGHT FOR A SPECIAL 3-DAY AUCTION, ENDING THURSDAY JULY 12th!!!
