Item Description
RARE, rich and outstanding Peru schorl from a small 1998 find at this obscure locale - Chacoya. Highly lustrous, unusually blocky, jet-black crystals have rhombohedral terminations and short prism faces. The striking crystals reach 2.5 cm and rest on a sculptural matrix plate of microcrystalline feldspar and quartz. The bit of noted periphery wear is certainly only a modest detraction to this exotic rarity. Ex Bob Reynolds Collection, a well-known fossil and mineral expert and Curator of the San Bernardino County Museum. He passed away in 2020. An exceptional rich rare schorl specimen with very unusual crystallization from the locale and find.
