Description

Fine and large specimen completely of colourless blocky halite crystals. It is difficult to show in the pictures, but the halite is almost perfectly transparent and clear. The halite crystals reach to a size of more then 5 centimetres in length. An old-time classic.

The specimen comes from the collection of Dr. G. Jung, who received it from H. del Caldo in 1964.
