Danalite is a member of the helvite group, rarely crystallizing. This is a large specimen with a massive embedded crystal of beautiful pink-red danalite, showing some fracture faces. What is more, it is from the old TYPE LOCALITY (from which it was described in 1866). A very rare and important old US specimen
