Item Description

Scintillating, gemmy, hexagonal vanadinite prism cover both sides of the bladed barite matrix on this aesthetic, fan-shaped specimen from Mibladen and the Herb Obodda dearler stock. Two type of vannies are evident: larger, second generation brick-red crystals; and small burnt-orange first generation crystals. Very nifty and pristine, two-sided material from the early 2000s find.
