Large Magnetite xl (Nowakowski Coll.)

Item Description

This locale is near the famous and closed Faraday Uranium Mine and is well-known for large magnetite and ilmenite specimens. Magnetite specimens of this size and quality are RARE and desirable. A sharp, complete all-around, 6.5 cm octahedron is aestheticaly attached to a bit of matrix, that includes muscovite. The moderately lustrous, metallic-gray octo has nifty stepped-growth faces. This superb large 360-degree crystal is pristine. Magnetic, as you would expect. Outstanding and rare magnetite from the Robert Nowakowski Collection and valued at $1500 for the combination of size and sharpness from this classic locale.
