Hematite with Goethite on Microcline (ex Rich Kosnar Collection)

Item Description

Park and Teller Counties in Colorado are best known for producing some of the most magnificent Amazonite specimens in the world. There aren't many species associated with the Amazonite, mostly Quartz, Albite, Fluorite and sometimes Hematite. The majority of the Hematite specimens from this area are often found as pseuomorphs after Siderite. This particular specimen features some very attractive, blackish-red color, spherical aggregates of Hematite which are associated with golden-brown Goethtie and on contrasting pink Microcline. The specimen was collected by Richard Kosnar on in June of 1982. A very attractive, and hard to find Hematite association specimen.
