Hematite (rare old classic) ex George Elling Coll.

Item Description

A rare, old-time, blocky section of lustrous, pseudocubic hematite from the famous Franklin Mining District of New Jersey. Some of these faces are sharply formed and some are (in situ) parting cleavages, but this is simply how the material forms, and is accepted as such. This is most uncommon and classic material from this historic district and the George Elling Collection, a noted Franklin specialist..
