- 3 specimens selected
ex. John White
A rare locality specimen of bementite, named after noted collector Clarence Bement. I had never seen material from Nevada before. The label notes that it is here "all the brown material" in which case, this would be quite rich!
5.2 x 3.9 x 2.2 cm. Extremely lustrous and sparkly, gemmy, deep wine-red andradite garnets richly covering the matrix, with accenting pale bementite. Specimens from the Manganese Fields of South Africa carry a special appeal for many collectors; this one came out of the collection of David Ellis.
