Well-formed aragonite specimens are RARE from the historic old iron mines at Frizington. This an impresssive and classic 360-degree cluster of sharp, glassy spikes nicely accented with a bit of attached matrix.

From an East Coast collection and comes with a faded and torn century-old label. Very seldom on the market.
