Description

Metallic red rutile needle from a less-known locality in Untersulzbachtal. The rutile pocket was found by Alpine strahler Kurt Nowak from Wald im Pinzgau in Summer 2024. The longest rutile crystals found in this pocket measured 6 cm and are 2 mm thick. Striations along the crystal intensify the reflections and make the luster more intense.
