Hematite with Quartz -unusual locality
Dzhezkazgan Mining District
Karagandy Province, Kazakhstan
4.7 x 3.8 x 2.8 CM (miniature)
price: $340


Choice, mirror bright metallic crystals in a stacked cluster from an unusual locality in Kazakhstan. The main crystal is a perfect hexagon 2.2 CM across. This mine is well known for excellent Copper minerals but this is the first fine Hematite we have seen. The Karagandy region has other localities for nice Hematites but this is both different in habit and better than most we have seen.
