Item Description

From this very obscure Argentina dry lake bed comes a sharp, transparent, halite cube with waxy luster and frosted faces perched on more halite. Complete all-around. Two sides are partially contacted, with no damage, per se and one corner was lightly cleaved and looks healed (not hard to do with halite!). Very rare material from this locale from the Dave Stoudt Collection. Bright orange fluorescence.
