Inesite
Wessels Mine (1980's), Kalahari Manganese Fields, South Africa
Toenail, 3.0 x 2.5 x 2.0 cm
SOLD
This is a cherry-red, lustrous, somewhat gemmy inesite from the famous early 1980s pocket that yielded the best quality of inesite found at these mines. Today, the pieces from this pocket are recognizably more lustrous and red than from other finds, and carry a premium. This is a super thumbnail example from the find!
