Item Description

A sweet pair of ISOLATED sphalerite crystals on sparkly, tan, dolomite rhombs from Elmwood. Isolated crystals, like this, are not that common. The sharp, highly lustrous crystals have nifty flashes of rubyjack color. Complete all-around and nearly pristine. The out-of-sight back tip of one of the crystals is gently bruised. Outstanding and rare Elmwood material.
