8.2" Polished Reticulated Hematite Slab - Western Australia
This is an excellent example of reticulated hematite. It has been cut into thin slabs and polished to a reflective surface on one side. The branching spiny pattern makes this a visually intriguing display piece that fits in any collection.
It comes with an acrylic display stand.

Hematite is a fairly common mineral, typically responsible for the red-brown colorations found in other minerals and rocks. Its chemical composition is Fe2O3, occasionally containing small amounts of titanium (variable formula (Fe,Ti)2O3). Much of the time, non-crystalline hematite specimens are the result of a transformation from limonite following loss of water.
