SV2240MJR: Parallel growths of flattened Baryte crystals (some of them doubly terminated) with a prismatic habit and slight curvatures, and on matrix with small crystals of Calcite. They are transparent, very lustrous and of an intense and uniform sky-blue color.
The specimen is in very good condition, which in these barytes is like a small miracle. It comes from a find in November 2022 at a locality that was believed to no longer yield any more quality specimens.
