Description

(Weight is with stand).

From the 2011 find, this is a polished end cut of radiating aggregate of tan to brown barite which was later coated by a secondary layer of copper colored barite.  Then a final coating of iridescent marcasite.  Because this is an end cut you can see the exterior.   Nice and very interesting specimen!  I love the feathery growth pattern of the barite, and the color contrasts.

Actual shipping cost will be calculated and added to the invoice.
