Item Description

A sharp, lustrous, dark chocolate-brown, complete all-around thorianite cube from the Fort Dauphin Region of Madagascar. A fine crystal for the locality and the slight corner wear is barely noticeable. This old-timer is from a find in the early 70?s. You just do not see these around on the market...in fact, how often do you see ANY thorium mineral? Ex Don Boydston Collection.
