Olmiite (Ref: 19.1-237)
N Chwaning Mine, Kalahari Fields, Kuruman, Northern Cape Province, South Africa
38mm x 34mm x 22mm
minID: MR1-PWL
A cute specimen of Olmiite crystals in spherical form on contrasting matrix. Nice luster and fair pink color, these were once all labeled as Poldervartites (a rare mineral at the time of the find) later re-studied and classified as Olmiite (also at that time a rare mineral). This discovery was sizable and enough good specimens found to allow collectors to own a nice piece without major financial pain. In good condition and a good value.From: Well-Arranged Molecules
