Description

Aggregate of hematite crystals, one clearly dominating, with a prismatic “pseudo-hexagonal” habitus that gives the crystal an elongated, barrel-like form, due to the development of “pseudo-bipyramidal” faces. The metallic lustre is remarkable and is formed by crystal faces or indentations with the matrix. Very aesthetic and of good size, with ha rare thick crystal for the locality.

Ex Honorio Ramon specimen.
