Barite on Marcasite

Unknown Owner
A wonderful aesthetic example for this locality with a stacking of blue gemmy tabular glassy barite crystals almost 5.5 cm in height coming off a cluster of bright lustrous crystallized marcasite. This is crystallized completely all around and in great condition. The barite crystals are fluorescent.
