Minerva No. 1 Mine, Hardin Co., Illinois, USA
description: A superb example for this unusual barium carbonate mineral with white platy crystals coating previous scalenohedral crystals of calcite to 3.5 cm in height.

Very good quality for the species. Shipping weight: 1 pound. Ex Charles Noll collection.
