Item Description
We have had only a few of these unusual pseudomorphs of Goethite after Magnetite. The actual pseudo is 3.2 cm across, with the original crystal habit clear and well-defined. The Goethite has attached Quartz and Feldspar matrix at the base, and there is an attached 1 cm Quartz crystal along one side. Overall, a distinctive, choice miniature of a highly unusual occurrence.
