Description

This is a piece of massive chromite that is a true chromite with <4% Mg and a Cr:Fe ratio of about 2. This sample is from the world’s largest and richest undeveloped chromite deposit. Access to this deposit is currently only by air with more than 99% of the deposit under muskeg, so very little is available to collectors.
