The piece presents a combination of larger primary crystals and smaller secondary growth, creating a layered and visually readable composition. The barite exhibits soft honey to beige coloration typical of the locality, with moderate translucency and clearly defined crystal forms.
The presence of the matrix provides a geological context and enhances the natural character of the specimen, while the distribution of crystals across the surface gives a balanced and stable appearance.
The present piece shows minimal contact and maintains good structural integrity, making it a solid representative example for a locality-focused collection.
Specimens of this type represent classic material from Cerro Huarihuayín and are well suited for collectors seeking representative examples of this Peruvian locality.
Location: Mina Llata, Cerro Huarihuayín, Miraflores, Huánuco
Material from Cerro Huarihuayín has appeared on the market only intermittently, and well-preserved miniature examples are not consistently available. As such, specimens from this locality are of particular interest to collectors focused on Peruvian occurrences.
