Choice Manganite that has blocky crystals up to 1.2 cm with razor-sharp edges and excellent luster. It is very rare to find Manganites in this habit and size with such quality. Marty prided himself on obtaining some of the best from the miners as they came out in the 1990s and I regard this as a very important and significant specimen.
