Item Description

A very attractive full-sized miniature specimen of the famous Barites from the Meikle Mine in Nevada. Several superb quality, razor sharp, highly lustrous, well-formed, tabular crystals with that classic golden color and excellent transparency measuring up to 2.1 cm on matrix. Some of the crystals show beautiful internal phantoms. Hard to photograph and truly better in person. The main crystals are all in excellent condition and the piece has such wonderful three-dimensional flair with superior crystal form. Valued in the inventory at $800.
