Hematite "bullet" xl

Item Description

Bullet-shaped, pseudo-scalenohedral, hematite crystals of this exceptional form are rare, indeed. The mirror-bright, 1.7 cm crystal has nifty preferentially striated faces and is jauntily set upright on matrix with smaller hematite crystals and tiny orangey andradite garnets. Complete all-around, this amazing crystal has some naturally scalloped areas, a trivial bit of edgewear and termination wear and a contacted face having minimal bruising. An outstanding, very showy and uncommon varietal specimen from the N'Chwaning III Mine.
