Item Description
A sharp miniature consisting of a sharp, blocky olmiite crystal on a bed of quartz. The 1.6 cm olmiite has superb luster and rich copper color, and it sits very attractively on gemmy, lustrous quartz crystals. It is a classic for the N'Chwaning II Mine, which is the Type Locality. A nice, aesthetic miniature.
