Wonderful, free-standing, aesthetic piece of light pink manganoan calcite surrounded by botryoidal goethite from the famous Montreal Mine in Hurley, Wisconsin. This material was misidentified as inesite when it was first discovered and many old specimens were labeled as such. The old inesite labels are valued by many collectors since most were thrown away when it was correctly identified. I have a catalog sheet from the last owner with the old label attached that will be included. ex-Shawn Carlson Collection.
