Item Description

Splendent metallic jet-black, sharp, lozenge-shaped hematite crystals, to 2.1 cm, are aesthetically clustered on the manganite ore matrix. The dramatic, starkly contrasting rich preferential sprinkling of sparkly pearlescent oyelite microcrystals is a super and colorful accent. This is an outstanding combination example of this hematite style with oyelite from the famed N'Chwaning Mines. The piece has two fine display views. Valued at $700-900.
