About this specimen

Jinkouhe, Leshan, Sichuan, baryte with quartz at 7.5 cm; a small cabinet piece. Blocky white baryte crystals are grown together into a solid mass, with a group of small clear quartz points standing out from one side of it.

Baryte (barite) is barium sulfate: heavy for its size, soft, and prone to tabular or bladed crystals with a bright vitreous lustre.

Rock crystal is judged on termination quality, clarity and how the crystals sit together, and the Chinese localities have raised the bar on all three.

Sichuan's alpine-type veins and skarns yield aquamarine, prehnite, epidote and scheelite of international quality.

By size it is small cabinet, 7.5 × 6 × 4.6 cm (2.95 × 2.36 × 1.81 in). Otherwise the piece is sold exactly as photographed.

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