Item Description

An attractive old specimen of the famous crystals of Brookite from Magnet Cove. This thumbnail features a few very sharp, highly lustrous, well-formed, pseudo-octahedral (orthorhombic) crystals of black Brookite measuring up to 1.2 cm across which are associated with colorless to grey colored Quartz crystals on matrix. The "wet" luster combined with the excellent form of the Brookite crystals is hard to capture in the photos, but it truly looks better in person. A wonderful classic specimen of this historic material.
