An ultra-sharp and scintillating hematite pseudomorph after an octahedral magnetite crystal jauntily perched atop smaller pseudos from the well-known 2002 find in Argentina. This artistic piece has textbook crystal form and came from a volcano in a national park, where collecting is strictly prohibited. Supposedly. Anyways, this is an excellent piece and who knows when more will come now.
