Item Description

Solid botryoidal hematite specimens are RARE from the Erongos. Sparkly, microcrystallized, gray-black hematite forms large botryoids on this impressive and rare large specimen. The broken botryoids reveal the luminous, silver-red, radial growth of the banded hematite. It reminds me of old English material, but it's not. A must for the species or locality collector.
