Item Description

Spherical nubby aggregates of tiny, pretty, pastel-pink, manganoan calcite rhombs are aesthetically clustered on the sculptural ironstone matrix on this aesthetic specimen from the famous Wessels Mine. The subtle pink color is very attractive. The fluorescence is moderate, deep rose-red. Ex Larry Krause dealer stock.
