Goethite with Calcite (classic material) (ex Josef Vajdak)

Item Description

Classic, beautiful, shimmering, semi-metallic, golden colored Goethite is associated with sharp, translucent, colorless Calcites on matrix from what is probably the most famous locality in the Czech Republic. Typically the Goethites from this area are black or brown, so to find a piece with brilliant color like this is rare in my experience. If you collect Czech minerals or old European classics, don't missout on this one. This is the only piece of the material that we have to offer right now, and comes with a classic label from Josef Vajdak / Pequa Rare Minerals, which immediately increases the value.
