Well formed red colored Uvite crystals are perched on rhombahedral, white to clear colored Magnesite crystals. The Uvite crystals are semi gemmy and have a high glassy luster. On the bottom of the specimen, the Magnesite is a peachy pink color and has a bladed habit which is unusual for the location. The specimen was labeled as also contain Goyazite. But even with a 10x loupe, I was unable to locate it. The specimen is in good condition but the Uvite crystals on the edges of the Uvite are not complete on the sides facing the edges.
