Item Description

Hematite and chlorite are both RARE from this well-known locale, famous for epidote and microcline specimens. To find both on the same specimen is exceptionally rare. Classic bladed hematite "iron roses" are richly and attractively scattered on the schist matrix. Rich coatings of drusy, green chlorite are a nice compliment. Essentially pristine. A showy, excellent, rich and rare large combination plate from the Herb Obodda dealer stock.
