Barite with Hematite, Chalcopyrite
specimen number:
2511031
location:
Pea Ridge Mine, Washington Co., Missouri, USA
description:
Large bladed crystals of barite dusted with specular hematite crystals and small chalcopyrite crystals measuring 9.0 x 7.5 x 5.0 cm overall. Classic material for this locality collected during the 1970s. Some chipping present, I'm not sure that I have seen one of these without some chipping present. Overall I think quite good and an excellent example for the species from this long closed locality. Shipping weight: 0.73 pounds. Ex Stephen Blyskal collection.
Size: 9.0 x 7.5 x 5.0 cm (small-cabinet)
