Schorl & Cleavlandite ex Obodda

Item Description

A classic, aesthetic and potentially uncommon combination specimen from the Shigar Valley and the Herb Obodda dealer stock. A 5.7 cm, sharply terminated, lustrous, striated, jet-black schorl tower is aesthetically covered with clusters of snow-white cleavelandite blades. The schorl has barely noticeable termination brusing, which is certainly not a detraction. The potential rarity is the large, coated, tabular crystal section the schorl is attached to. It appears to be a large columbite or tanatalite crystal. Choice and showy combo material.
