Item Description

A super rare, sculptural and colorful pseudomorph from the Erongo Region. Fantastic, sharp, intergrown, highly modified pyrite pyritohedral crystals have replaced by hematite. Rich brick-red limonite coats the pseudos. The modest bit of bruising reveals, that the pseudos are solid hematite. The striking, dominating tabular pseudo is 3.3 cm tall. This is surreal and RARE 360-degree floater from the Erongos!
