Item Description

A gorgeous and sculptural specimen consisting of sharp, lustrous, black pseudo-octahedral (bipyramidal tetragonal) "pagoda"-like crystals of Hausmannite from the famous Kalahari manganese field. These are some of the best Hausmannites in the world, and good pieces like this are not easy to find on the market. More than just a black rock, this is an attractive display specimen of this fairly hard to find manganese oxide. Valued at $1,800 in the inventory.
