Item Description

A showy miniature sized piece of Siderite from the limited finds at the Kaiwu Mine in Guizhou, China. The piece features a predominant, sharp, lustrous, translucent, rich greenish-brown rhomb of Siderite measuring 3.6 cm at its longest dimension, sitting atop additional Siderite, with no other minerals / matrix. Good shape overall, though there is one nick on the right edge of the main Siderite. These are rarely seen on the market now, and if you collect carbonates, you should have one of these Siderites in your collection.
