Description from the seller

This attractive specimen features a cluster of unusually large Vanadinite crystals on matrix from the famous Mibladen mining district. The crystals display a rich deep cherry-red colour with attractive internal translucency and a bright vitreous lustre. Their well-developed hexagonal forms create a strong visual contrast against the natural matrix, while numerous smaller crystals enhance the overall composition.
