Item Description

A fascinating and aesthetic schorl from this famed San Diego County locale. Tectonic forces broke and offset the crystal, which then froze and rehealed. Pocket fluids later etched the terminations. This very rare style of Little Three schorl is from the noted Pala International/Bill Larson Collection. A MUST for the San Diego County pegmatite collector.
