Item Description

The Magnet Mine is well known for the Chrome-Cerussite specimens it has produced over the years. This large thumbnail is composed of distinct, bladed crystals that are lustrous and a rich, attractive lemon color. Sitting on a Limonite (Gossan) matrix, the contrast in color and tone makes for an appealing aesthetic. This was #8684 in Kay's collection, and it even has a soft fluorescence under UV light. .
