Vanadinite Crystals, Barite Dolomite Matrix, 50.2mm Raw Dense Cluster Specimen from Mibladen, Morocco (64.22g)

This impressive raw Vanadinite specimen from Mibladen, Morocco features a dense growth of reddish-orange Vanadinite crystals across a Barite and Dolomite matrix. The specimens features numerous well-defined hexagonal formations approximately 2–6 mm in size and one especially prominent crystal measuring over 1/8 inch thick. Deep pockets throughout the matrix are also filled with Vanadinite, creating an incredibly dimensional specimen with rich red and orange coloration that shifts beautifully under bright overhead lighting. This is older Moroccan material that I have personally held in my collection for more than 10 years.
