Description

Very interesting specimen, which has essentially grown together from two spherules showing a pseudomphosis from hematite after garnet. These pseudomorphs are described by the Thomas Range, but are extremely rare to see. In the center of the two spheres are two intergrown blocky bixbyite-(Mn) crystals. Rarity and curiosity at the same time.
