Item Description

Siderite pseudomorphs after sharp calcite scalenohedrons are rare from the famous mines at Santa Eulalia. This showy large two-sided plate features sparkly brown siderite after dogteeth crystals to 4.0 cm. The few broken pseudos reveal, that some, if not most of the pseudos are hollow! Small oxide-coated gypsum blades are preferentially clustered on some of the pseudos and are a very nifty accent. Choice and rare material from the Herb Obodda dealer stock.
