Zircon (ex Dr. Miguel Romero Collection)

Item Description

A rarity from South Carolina in the form of a textbook, sharp, lustrous, well-formed, bi-pyramdial crystal of Zircon with a purplish-brown hue and minor attached matrix. This is one of the best individual crystals I've seen from this locality, and would make a great addtion to a thumbnail suite, a collection of Zircon crystals or specimens from the United States. From the collection of Senator / Dr. Miguel Romero of Teuhuacan, Mexico (Collection #6404).
