Unrepaired Specular Hematite (Iron Rose) with Quartz, Jinlong Hill, Longchuan Guangdong, Sourced at Mineral Bazaar

This specimen was sourced firsthand from a local mineral bazaar. Classic association of Specular Hematite (Iron Rose) and Quartz from Jinlong Hill, Longchuan, Heyuan, Guangdong, China.

No repairs, no glue, no artificial restoration. All crystals grow naturally in original position. The hematite forms beautiful rosette "iron rose" aggregates with brilliant metallic luster. The specimen hosts large main quartz crystals together with slender needle quartz clusters. Sharp crystal terminations, some crystals carry natural iron oxide staining. The striking black-and-white mineral contrast creates fantastic 3D aesthetics. Stable matrix with well-defined paragenesis. Excellent for cabinet display, geological study and mineral collection.
