Description

Baryte from a very rare locality – Nistru in Romania.
Specimens from the former gold and ore mine are rare, since it closed decades ago - so this specimen is also from an old collection.

The grey matrix is a good contrast to the transparent-white baryte.
The exposed big single baryte crystal size is 2.3 x 2.3 cm and the baryte-cluster is in quite nice condition.
