About this specimen

Inner Mongolia, specular hematite with quartz at 2 cm; a thumbnail, supplied on the acrylic stand shown. A rosette of dark metallic hematite blades sits at the centre of a crusted matrix, with small quartz points and yellow-brown crystals scattered around it.

Specularite forms glittering steel-grey plates, the iron oxide that makes so much Guangdong quartz sparkle.

Quartz is the most collected mineral on earth for good reason: sharp hexagonal prisms, bright terminations and endless variation between localities.

Inner Mongolia's Huanggang and Chifeng districts produce fluorite, calcite, garnet and rhodochrosite in a lustre and clarity that set the modern standard for Chinese carbonates.

By size it is thumbnail, 2 × 1.9 × 1.6 cm (0.79 × 0.75 × 0.63 in). Otherwise the piece is sold exactly as photographed.

Specimens are photographed and catalogued one at a time before they reach this page.
