Detailed Description

This is a really super one – brilliant, sharp, lustrous magnetite crystals are accompanied by small green epidote crystals and sprakline clear quartz crystals, providing excellent contrast. In excellent condition – no damage other than a spot at lower left – not a focal point. This is a beautiful, classy magnetite specimen!

 


About These Magnetites

The finest quality magnetite crystals from the famous iron deposits at Dashkesan are among the nicest magnetite specimens from anywhere. These magnetite crystals are particularly special because they feature predominantly the dodecahedron, modified by triangular octahedral faces – they are different from more typical octahedral magnetite crystals.
