Description
A gorgeous small miniature of beautifully gemmy blood-red Proustite crystals as choice clusters scattered over Native Arsenic. The latter forms branching crystallised arrays and herringbone-like aggregates over micro-granular dark-grey Native Arsenic. A most attractive specimen from Schlema in Erzgebirge, Saxony, Germany.
