Item Description
Zircons from this old, extinct North Carolina zircon pegmatite area are seldom on the market. Sharp, moderately lustrous, brown, zircons crystals to 1.3 cm are nicely clustered atop the matrix of solid zircon. Interestingly, no fluorescence, probably due to the presence of iron. Sharp specimen!
