Crocoite

From - Tasmania 

This beautiful, rare crystalline specimen comes from the famous Adelaide Mine in Dundas, Tasmania.  This specimen measures approx 60mm across the host rock, and weighs 98 grams.

 

Crocoite is an extremely beautiful mineral. It was first discovered in Russia and later in other European localities, but only sparingly and seldom in attractive examples.  The Adelaide mine in Tasmania is famous for it's exceptional crocoite crystals. Large, brilliant, well-formed crystals were obtained for a short time but these specimens were exhaustively collected, and now no longer available. Beautiful specimens such as the one offered for sale here, that show off crocoite's unique hyacinth-red colour, high luster and unusual character are a prized addition to anyone's collection.
