Erythrite specimens

Erythrite specimens

Erythrite is a rare cobalt arsenate mineral, sometimes known as 'red cobalt'.

It is typically of limited commercial value and is primarily sold as mineral specimens. However, it does seem to be getting harder and harder to find quality specimens.

We currently have a single piece in stock, from an unknown locale. I suspect it to be South African. It was bought from an older collection with no provenance attached unfortunately.

Nice piece with some good quality splayed crystals - magnification recommended.

Please note, Erythrite is a cobalt arsenate mineral and should be considered toxic to handle.

These specimens will be supplied bagged and should then ideally be transferred to a display box out of reach of pets and children.
