Ettringite, Hausmannite and Andradite
Wessels Mine, Hotazel, Kalahari manganese field, Northern Cape, South Africa RSA
The Pastel Yellow of the Ettringite reminds me of a ice-cold Lemonade.
These gorgeous Ettringite crystals have developed on a gleaming beige to slightly red Andradite crystal matrix.
To add more of a wow factor to this rare specimen you can find Highly Metallic, opaque, triangles of Hausmannite too!
