Magnetite (classic locale) ex Ken Hollman Coll.

Item Description

The well-known ZCA No. 4 Mine at Balmat has produced some America's finest magnetites and this is an excellent thumbnail example. The sharp cubic form is a classic for these aesthetically intergrown crystals. The jet-black crystals have splendent metallic luster and the zoning on the crystal faces adds much character. The modest bruising has very minimal impact to the overall high quality of this piece. A classic Balmat cutie.
