Description

This is a fine specimen with relatively large cubed crystals of rare arsenate Bariopharmacosiderite from the type locality, the Clara Mine in Black Forest. The crystals are sharp and lustrous and they are showing a dark brown colour with a hint of red. Very contrastful, because they are scattered over creamy and glistening Quartz matrix.
