This is an excellent specimen from one of the most storied and well known districts in Colorado. The pegmatites near the Lake George area of Colorado have produced what most collectors and dealers consider to be some of the finest crystallized Goethite specimens from the standpoint of superb color, top quality, large crystals, wonderful display specimens and excellent associations. This particular specimen it is a superb display piece featuring very good quality, sharp, lustrous, golden-black "blades" of Goethite forming a beautiful crystallized "ball". The base of the specimen shows some minor associated Smoky Quartz. The quality is good for Goethite from the area, and the piece is crystallized all the way around save the bottom where it detached from the pocket. It’s rather uncommon to find crystallized “spheres” or “balls” of Goethite like this from any world locality.
