Item Description
A very rich example of this rare cobalt minerals, from famous finds with large crystals and plates in the 1990s. Although an old classic locality that has produced before and since that time, large and rich plates like this are uncommon. This has a full display face, in nearly perfect condition with just a few rubs (it is a very soft mineral after all), and crystals to over 1 cm. The matrix is solid erythrite (cobalt) ore, itself. The piece sits dramatically in any orientation and really adds color to any display, because of the intense magenta saturation. Rarely seen for sale in this richness and size, it was valued $2500-plus in a recent collection acquisition.
