Item Description

A classic and very showy goethite specimen from Colorado. Connected, radiating clusters of lustrous, chocolate-brown, goethite blades form this striking hedgehog ball. The contacted backside reveals the radiating bladed clusters, extremely high luster, AND brown GEMMINESS to some of the blades. This fine specimen is from a recent find at the Dreamtime Mine in Teller County. The front is nearly pristine, with only a couple broken blades. Highly representative material.
