Item Description
Kammererite specimens from the famous Woods Chrome Mine of Texas, Pennsylvania are rare and seldom on the market. Sparkly, gemmy, vivid magenta kammererite microcrystals fill numerous small vugs on all three sides of the sculptual, massive chromite matrix. This is classic, old-time material. Woods Chrome Mine hosts the finest occurrence of kammererite in the United States. Ex Sal Avella and Robert Whitmore Collections.
