Item Description
An incredibly rare specimen of the Spinel group species, Galaxite from the Kaso Mine in Japan. In addition to the rare Galaxite, both Jacobsite and Wiserite are present. This piece is a polished specimen which shows brown-red Galaxite with semi-metallic black-grey Jacobsite and minor tan Wiserite. This is the only piece of this material that we've had to offer, and it comes with a classic label from Josef Vajdak / Pequa Rare Minerals, which immediately increases the value.
