Item Description
Ice-blue baryte crystals are among the RAREST and most desirable of the many color varietals from the historic and extinct precious metal and polymetallic deposits at Baia Sprie. Well-composed parallel-growth clusters of very glassy, gemmy to translucent tabular spearpoints, to about 4 cm, form a sculptural large specimen. Baia Sprie, where mining took place from the 14th century until 2006 (unofficial mining may continue), is famous for exceptional stibnite, world-class realgar and rare realgar-included baryte specimens. Periphery wear and some interior bruising are noted, but have minimal impact to the overall very highly quality of this rare and gemmy rich blue barite from Baia Sprie. From the longheld classics collection of Richard Hauck.
