MB99I0: The quality of its color is extraordinary. Crystals have different intensities of color on the prism and the rhombohedron, it is more intense on the terminations. The group is a stalagmite which once covered a hexagonal crystal of Calcite, now gone, but it left a mold in the center of the specimen. We note the precision of the quarry’s name, until now very difficult to determine on Uruguayan specimen.
The specimen has been reviewed, photographed and published as a new discovery in the magazine ‘Mineral Up’ on page 54 in number 2007/1.
