Micromount Monday Week 4 - Manganite on Quartz

Micromount Monday, Week 4

Manganite on Quartz

Today is the fourth installment of Micromount Monday, a beautiful specimen of Manganite on Quartz from New Brunswick. What is a micromount? It's typically defined as a specimen that requires a microscope to fully appreciate it or to view the species that's showcased. Most competitions require that the whole specimen be less than 25mm in diameter. I sell a variety of micromount products here at perkyboxes.com.
