Item Description
Gem-like, blocky to tabular, golden-amber barite crystals to 6 mm are richly and attractively scattered on both sides of this quartz rib from finds in China a couple of years ago. Sadly, very few of these pretty specimens have come out, and one wonders if any more will. Fine material with scintillating crystals.
