Description

A well formed example of a cyclic eightling twin, of which Magnet Cove is famous for. Previously part of Barbara and Forrest Cureton’s systematic collection (#517). I acquired this specimen from Dave Bunk Minerals at their special event for the Cureton collection during the 2024 fall Denver shows.
