Item Description

Specular hematite and dipyramidal quartz combination specimens are a Beckermet Mine classic. Two adjacent vugs, to 3.0 cm, are fully lined with scintillating jet-black hematite blades on the massive hematite matrix. Both vugs host a few gem-like, dipyramidal quartz crystals. This is a striking and excellent CABINET specimen. Ex Howard Belsky Collection.
