Item Description
Exemplary example of the famous and highly desired Gaudefroyite/Andradite/Baryte combinations from Black Rock Mine. The Gaudefroyites are lustrous, and the largest of the crystals is a full 1 cm long. With such luster and excellent individuality and definition across the specimen, they really catch the eye. The brilliant red Andradites provide a beautiful contrast. The Barytes add a nice contrast, as well. Excellent example of this rare species from the bet locality in the world for it...
