Item Description
An outstanding and very aesthetic Minerva Mine witherite cluster. Sharp, conical, hexagonal crystals with frosted faces and typical layering are jauntily set in opposing directions on matrix. The striking doubly terminated crystal is 2.4 cm. Bright snow-white fluorescence. All of the major crystals are pristine. Classic and elegant older material from this renowned locale. MUCH, MUCH BETTER IN PERSON. valued $750
