Item Description

Dense cluster of sharp, tan Siderites replacing rhombs of Baryte. Averaging 3-4 mm on edge, these pseudos have preserved the original habit very well, and the layer of crystals is uniform across the matrix, and attractive. I've seen nothing like this in Mindat, let alone in person, so my suspicion is that these are uncommon. Unusual and pretty, this seems an overlooked and interesting pseudomorph
