Item Description
This is the first specimen of Chiavennite that we've seen from this locality. Massive pale orange spots of this rare hydrated calcium manganese beryllium silicate can be seen on the display side of the specimen. A great piece for any rarities collector as they are virtually impossible to find on the market. The piece comes with a classic label from Josef Vajdak / Pequa Rare Minerals, which immediately increases the value. You can read Joe's biography here: http://www.minrec.org/labels.asp?colid=1371
