Elongated, lustrous, barrel shaped crystals of a deep chocolate brown from the premier deposit of Broken Hill in NSW, Australia. This is old material, and crystals of this size are really hard to obtain! It is remarkably pristine on the display face, though one large crystal is broken on the backside. The largest crystal exceeds 2.7cm. which is large for BH. Again, the mere presence of this quality from this old deposit is rare.
