Bright pink to magenta fibrous acicular erythrite crystal clusters richly cover both sides of the hefty matrix plate. Rich cobalt-nickel ore here. A very uncommon thing on the market, as this is old material from over 30 years ago (or more). Seldom seen in such rich pieces today and from an uncommon locale - the Sara Alicia Mine, Sonora. Ex. Mullane Collection.
