 Cabinet sized plate-like specimen of amethyst with associated calcite?  Just a touch of iron here and there - one of the better cabinet specimens of this material I have handled given no showing matrix and lack of damage.

Cluster of yellow tabular barite crystals.  A few crystals exhibit damage but otherwise in fine shape.  Specimen could use a little bit of cleaning to enhance the displayability and quality.  Nice piece from this location.  $45.00
