Item Description

A rarely seen specimen from the Barrett Mine in Georgia featuring a cluster of sharp, well-formed, somewhat lustrous prismatic Quartz crystals that are coated by manganese oxide. The largest crystal measures 3.2 cm long. It comes from a trusted source, so I know the locality is correct.
