BAR53 - BARITE on CALCITE, Elk Creek, Meade County, Black Hills, South Dakota
A large cabinet specimen covered in drusy yellow calcite and dappled with a dozen transparent golden brown barite xls. The largest crystal is doubly terminated and 45mm long, but has been repaired. There are also a number of incomplete xls, a testament to how hard it is to collect these undamaged. 130x100x90mm (5x4"), $139
