Item Description
A super-rich specimen of the very rare species Jouravskite. The thick (up to 1.3 cm) layer of gemmy yellow microcrystals comprises virtually all of this small cab. This hydrated, calcium, manganese sulfate, carbonate comes out only rarely from the Kalahari Fields. This is right up there with the richest Jouravskites I have seen. An excellent specimen valued $750-1000.
