This sparkling Specular Hematite specimen is from the rare and sought after location of Elba Island, off the coast of Tuscany in Italy. These specimens have distinct Hematite blades which characterises them as Specular Hematite, or Specularite, meaning "mirrored", and some also have Pyrite crystals present. Elba Island is famous for it's bladed Hematite, and rarely will produce exquisite iridescent specimens from Rio Marina. You will receive the exact Hematite crystal pictured.
Hematite is best known as one of the main iron ores. Hematite is usually seen as a dark black, brown or red dull to metallic mineral, but it also is seen in a shimmering form called Specular Hematite, and a rare naturally rainbow iridescent form called Rainbow Hematite. This crystal was thought by the Romans to protect them, so the soldiers crushed it and rubbed it on their bodies when they went into battle, whilst Native Americans created war paint with it as it was believed to make them invincible
