A cluster of sharp, light-yellow to brownish dipyramidal tetragonal crystals of Wardite to 2 mm. Wardite is an unusual hydrated phosphate, and is one of the few members of the tetragonal trapezohedral crystal class. Ed Swoboda personally picked this piece in Brazil during the 1960s and held it for over 30 years, when I purchased it in the early 1990s. No damage, it is in original Ed Swoboda mount.ex.
