Hematite ps. After Magnetite

Item Description

An aesthetic and pristine single crystal floater of an ultra-sharp and scintillating hematite pseudomorph after a magnetite octahedron from the well-known 2002 find in Argentina. The steeply terminated octo looks like a multi-staged missile and the sides of the piece have striking, ribbed, skeletal features. These artistic pieces came from a volcano in a national park, where collecting is strictly prohibited. Supposedly. Anyways, this is an excellent piece and who knows when more will come now. Yes, more have come in recent years, but in subtly different styles and forms, no two the same. Impressive visual 360-degree form. The former dealer label has a $265 price.
