Item Description
Polylithionite is a rare mica group species, with the fabled Poudrette Quarry producing some of the finest examples. This is an aesthetic two-sided rosette of parallel-growth, pearlescent, polylithionite blades. Nearly a floater and in great shape with only trivial contacting and edge wear. A very showy, excellent and light weight specimen from this classic locale. Ex Schlichter Collection.
