Glassy, sharp, translucent grayish-white celestine crystals are festooned on the mounded matrix covered with tiny, sharp, water-clear, colorless barite crystals. Nearly pristine, with only one spot of periphery wear. This is an exceptional and uncommon combination from the famous Wessels Mine and hails from the August, 2009 find.
