Item Description
Sharp, lustrous, translucent, reddish-brown, hexagonal vanadinite barrels to 7 mm are richly and attractively scattered on the starkly contrasting large matrix of botryoidal manganese oxides. This classic, very showy and excellent combination is from the early 1980s finds at less well-known Taouz. Choice and pristine material from the Bob Trimingham Collection.
