Item Description

A hard to find specimen of white stacked Strontianite crystals with minor matrix. This locality is well known for its Fluorite specimens, though they are few and far between on the market these days.

Ex Ross Lillie collection (#RCL1180), whose label states that it was collected with advance mining in the cross cut orebody.
