A dramatic and aesthetic miniature of very highly lustrous to sparkly to matte-finish octohedral hematite pseudomorphs after magnetite from the 2002 Argentina find that was such a hit at Tucson. The tall crystals are very pagoda-like and are partially hoppered on all four sides. The cluster of perfect octahedrons at the base perfectly compliment this fine piece. 4.6 x 3.5 x 2.4 cm
