Attractive pink bladed lustrous crystallized barite across the top of this matrix with crystallized calcite. This is in terrific condition. The specimen is really fine for the species from this famous old locality closed in 1962. Several previous collection labels come with the specimen, one of them noting that at one time this was part of the collection of John Brottlund, a miner who worked at the Montreal mine and was responsible for most of the specimens recovered.
