A fine hematite specimen from the ancient iron mines at Rio Marina, Elba. Two large, splendent hematite disks cap this dramatic, old-time specimen. The large crystal is 4.0 cm. Milky quartz crystals with a few brassy pyrite pyrithedrons richly cover one side of this very fine two-sided specimen. This is classic, old-time combination material from this historic locality. Ex. Mullane Collection.
