AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Lot of 30 pieces of yellow siderite from the Brosso mine, Valchiusella. The pieces measure between 2 and 4 cm.

• Description of the specimen: Gorgeous multi-piece lot consisting of 30 selected siderite samples, with ideal sizes for systematic collecting or study ranging between 2 and 4 cm. The specimens display the classic and fascinating crystallization in lenticular and rosette-like aggregates, characterized by a warm and vivid yellow-ochre and brown-gold coloration. The crystals, well defined and grouped in three-dimensional clusters, show a pleasant luster and are sometimes accompanied by small fragments of the original iron matrix. A rich and homogeneous ensemble, perfect for collectors or exchange enthusiasts.
