Radiating Brown Inesite

Radiating Brown Inesite from Broken Hill, Yancowinna Co., New South Wales, Australia

Collection

Robert Lavinsky

Description

Inesite is a lot better known from South Africa, but the classic locality of Broken Hill did produce Inesites of its own! They appear as crystallized balls of radial, acicular crystals, which you can clearly see shimmering in this specimen, embedded in the matrix. There are several clusters of these crystals packed together in this rich specimen.
