Item Description

Jarosite, anhydrous K-Fe sulfate, is the only fairly common species from this less well-known Nevada district. All other species are very rare. Lustrous, translucent, densely intergrown, reddish-brown rhombs cover the sparing matrix on this rich, showy and excellent example from this obscure locale. A must for the species or Nevada collector.
