Item Description
A spectacular and sculptural combination specimen of gemmy, orange-red, hexagonal, vanadinite prisms to 5 mm aesthetically scattered on the striking goethite crust covered with nifty parallel-growth, manganese oxide stalactites from the less well-known deposits at Taouz. Fine specimens, such as these, came out in the 1970s and 80s. This piece is in great shape.
