Item Description
A very rare and showy pseudomorph from the less well-known Stony Pass area of San Juan County, Colorado. Microcrystalline quartz has pseudomorphed a striking, jackstraw cluster of sharp barite blades. The largest blade is 3.5 cm on this excellent and very uncommon pseudo. Complete all-around, with only modest periphery wear. The base has been sawed to enhance the fine display quality. It displays very well without aid. Ex George Fisher Collection, a noted Colorado specialist.
