Item Description

A classic large "X" of staurolite crystals on sparkly muscovite schist from this well-known locale. The crystals also come as cruciform twins from the locale. These are fairly stout crystals for the locale. Nearly pristine, with only one spot of bruising, which is certainly only a modest detraction.
