Item Description

Sharp, thick, and lustrous, this fine Baryte is from the venerable Clara Mine, opened in 1726 and still active. The three chisel-point terminations give the Baryte character, and the purity of the Baryte is exceptional for the Clara mine. No significant inclusions! The definition of this Baryte on Baryte is quite good, and the crystalline Baryte has nice translucence. #13,031 in Kay's collection, this is a quality, and aesthetic, Clara Mine Baryte.
