Item Description

Quality cluster of Goethite pseudomorphed after Baryte. The Barytes were bladed and terminated with chisel-points and the pseudos have retained the original habit nicely. The longest of the crystals is 5 cm, and it is doubly-terminated. These are akin to the well-known Goesthite ps. Magnetite pseudos, also from Erongo. Not elegant, but very good for what they are.
