Hyalite opal on Rutile crystals
Novo Horizonte
Bahia, Brazil
5.2 x .8 x .6 CM (small cabinet/ large miniature)
price: $360
An amazing and odd specimen with the association of glass-clear Hyalite Opal balls coating the golden to copper color Rutile crystals. From a small find about 2 years ago, these were very much a surprise in the mineral world. As far as I know, this association is unique to this locale, only one example is seen on Mindat and this is certainly a very rare combo. In fine condition, esthetic and the Hyalite is vividly fluorescent as well.
