Item Description
A showy and classic combination specimen from Sterling Hill. A sharp, 1.2 x 1.2, franklinite octahedron is jauntily set in a matrix of pink, manganoan calcite accented with stringers of small rust-brown willemite crystals and franklinite octahedrons. Classic, neon-green fluorescence on the willemite and faint purple with the calcite.
