Rutile (epitaxial) on Hematite (Ref: 12.1-013)
Novo Horizonte, Bahia, Brazil
35mm x 21mm
minID: 4Q2-26V
A modern classic, these star shaped radial Rutile specimens are simply fantastic. When first found in Brazil, these were a huge sensation, the best ever seen. This is a good, small miniature that is far less expensive than larger examples, but still has a good impact. With brilliant luster, this specimen is a textbook example of epitaxy. These were rather plentiful from Brazilian dealers 3 years ago but are now getting scarce.From: Well-Arranged Molecules
