Item Description

A splendent, jauntily angled, metallic-gray, hematite crystal forms an excellent and aesthetic miniature from the famous Nchwaning II Mine. The striking pristine crystal is pseudo-scalenohedral and looks like a bullet! Classic Kalahari material, which produces some of the finest crystallized hematite in the world.
