Barite on Dolomite and Rhodochrosite (Ref: AX-12-503)
Cerro Warihuyn - Miraflores, Huamalies Prov., Huanuco Department, Peru
109mm x 79mm x 64mm
minID: YGH-ENE
A fine cabinet specimen that is far beyond the average Barite from Cerro Warihuyn. The Barite is a smoky golden color, very clear and mostly all transparent. The matrix is a mix of Dolomite and Rhodochrosite which adds a nice pink contrast. A few tiny dark Sulphide crystals are noted too, but they are minor in the composition. The free standing Barites are very fine for this important locality, 4.7 CM across with nice zoning. No damage to note except a small chip on the backside of the Barite that is not visible from any logical display angle. The presentation side is in perfect condition. Far better in person. This locale had produced lots of Barite and is world renown for them, this specimen is exceptional compared to the vast majority of the find. From: Well-Arranged Molecules
