A small but excellent specimen consisting of several layers of reniform fibrous hematite var kidney ore with some relics of ferrous carbonate. 

The uppermost layer covers former carbonate crystals forming a kind of perimorph with highly lustrous surface - a real 'glaskopf'.

The specimen is quite old, an old label is attached. The long time abandoned Brummerjan iron mine was famous for selenides in its paragenesis.
