Description

This is a superb, well-formed cluster of numerous bipyramidal wardite crystals from the famous Rapid Creek locality in the Dawson Mining District. The crystals exhibit a cloudy transluscent beige hue with an underside that features a dense sprinkling of micro eosphorite needles. This specimen is exceptional for both its rarity and its locality.
