Item Description
Beautiful sprays of silky, snow-white, ulexite needles complimented by golden-amber, calcite scalenohedrons form an aesthetic and very uncommon combination specimen from this well-known deposit at Boron. This is a rarer form of ulexite, than the blocky style, called "TV rock" for its fiber-optic-like optical properties.
