Item Description

A lovely little "Alpine type" specimen featuring a very lustrous, metallic grey color, radiating, "rosette"-esque group of Ilmenite on contrasting white to colorless crystallized Albite on matrix. The quality is wonderful, and this is about as good as Ilmenite gets from Pakistan. The "rosette" measures 6 mm across, and it's very good quality despite the smaller size. No damage, and certainly very fine for the species in general.
