Description

This fine specimen features countless crystals of almost perfect  Baryte on matrix. The sharp and excellent developed crystals are gemmy and mirror bright. This is an absolutely unusual and also aesthetic specimen. Most of the Barytes are browny or gray,- but such superb waterclear crystals are almost oddities. Extremely hard to come by nowadays. I have purchased this material (just a  handful of pieces) about 2 decades ago from a miner there. "Super stuff".
