Hematite (botryoidal) (very rare locality specimen) (ex Kay Robertson Collection)

Item Description

This is the first specimen of this material that we've ever had to offer. Dozens of bronze to golden-brown colored, slightly iridescent botryoidal Hematite "balls" measuring up to 4 mm sit atop host rock matrix. Excellent condition all around, and a very atypical Hematite regardless of locality. If you collect Hematites or minerals of Germany, this is a really cool esoteric piece that would make a great addition to your collection. Ex Kay Robertson Collection (#3739). Kay is a prominent California collector, who specialized in European classics (see the article in the March-April, 2007 Mineralogical Record and the 50+ page article in the German Magazine "Mineralien Welt" November-December 2017).
