Barite |
Barite |
| Specimen # | 100937 | |
| Mineral: | Barite | |
| Location: | Pack Rat Mine, Pryor Mtns, Carbon Co., Montana, USA | |
| Size: | 8.4 x 6.6 x 4.8 cm | |
Clustered golden-brown barite crystals are perched on this pale sandy-coloured matrix from the Pack Rat Mine. The Pack Rat produced a relatively small number of these fine specimens in the early 1990s. The diamond-shaped barite crystals are sharp and translucent, aggregated togehter in groups. In excellent condition, a couple of missing tips, no damage across the horizon of this specimen as I would display it (as in the first photo). A distinctive matrix specimen from a great, unusual Montana locality.
