Item Description

Amphibole Group species are very rare from this Shigar Valley area locale. Ferro-pargasite is a rare amphibole. The strikingly different terminations on this splendent, well-striated, jet-black doubly terminated floater crystal really accentuate this piece. Very nearly pristine. The trivial edge wear to the spearpoint termination is out-of-sight on both sides. Very unusual and excellent for the locale. Ex. Herb Obodda specimen. ID is from the previous owner.
