Item Description

Resplendent specimen of an incredibly rich coating of the very rare species Jouravskite. The carpet of gemmy yellow microcrystals (up to 1 mm) covers much of the matrix on the presentation side. This rare hydrated, calcium, manganese sulfate, carbonate comes out only rarely from the Kalahari Fields. The is one of the most aesthetic and sparkly, I have seen.
