Item Description

Lustrous, striated, black, schorl crystals to 5.2 cm are strikingly embedded in both sides of the glassy quartz fragment from an old and less well-known New Hampshire locale. The Clement Mine was an old beryl and mica mine and specimens from this locale are very rare on the market. Hence, this is a highly representative good one! Ex Robert Whitmore Collection # 1334.
