Siderite
0 for sale
Large quartz (20 cm) with a smaller side quartz, both covered by intact, flattened, ochre-gray colored rhombohedrons of siderite. A ferberite crystal is at the base. A few small, almost colorless apatite crystals are stuck in the large quartz crystal. The ensemble appears to be floating: the lower portion of the large quartz is entirely recrystallized, while there appears to be a little contact at the level of the ferberite.
