Hematite from Irhoud Mine, Safi Province , Morocco

A very attractive specimen of botryoidal Hematite from Morocco. Similar to the classic material from Cumberland, England, it is also called “kidney ore” because of its resemblance to that organ. Composed of solid Hematite which is arranged into a very pleasing formation of side-by-side orbs. As the photos show, this piece is in excellent condition and has lots of beautiful details to explore.
