19558: Gypsum variety Selenite - $18 Planalto, Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil Miniature - 4.2 x 1.9 x 1.7 cm 16 grams Specimen status: Available Send an email with specimen number to order A blocky gypsum crystal from the
locality better known for its quartz replacements of
anhydrite. Although the term 'selenite' it used much too
frequently - it should refer only to colorless,
transparent samples - this specimen clearly deserves this
varietal label. Minor contact point where removed from
matrix, otherwise very nice condition.
