Item Description

Gemmy, wonderfully complex, lusterous cinnabar crystals on white dolomite. This locality really raised the bar for cinnabar specimens. Most of the crystals on this specimen are in great shape, but some are damaged. It is nevertheless bright and pretty, an excellent reference example
