Hematite on Magnesite

Unknown Owner
A single razor sharp crystal of mirror like hematite is centered nicely on a crystalline matrix of translucent magnesite rhombohedrons. There are a couple small dark red fluor-uvites nestled within the magnesite on the front and bottom. The aesthetics of this specimen are simply superb.
