Item Description
A cool and incredibly hard to find association specimen from the famous Kalahari Manganese Field featuring dozens of small, lustrous, sharp, black cubic crystals of Bixbyite (now defined as Bixbyite-(Mn)) sitting in massive manganese-bearing matrix, along with a thin seam featuring beautiful tiny gemmy yellow Ettringite crystals. This piece, to the best of my knowledge, is the ONLY specimen featuring these two minerals that we've had to offer in the auctions. If you collect Kalahari minerals, this is cool esoteric specimen for your collection.
