SCALENOHEDRAL HEMATITE, Arzanah Island, near Abu-Dhabi, United Arab Emirates, 1 cm in length | |
Here is a thumbnail with a black lustrous Hematite crystal. The crystal is a very interesting form. a double terminated scalenohedron. This is very unusual for Hematite. My understanding is that collecting is not allowed and these were collected and brought out in the sock of an oil worker. There may be more on the remote island but good luck getting them. |
