The piece is defined by a well-formed tabular barite crystal showing clear geometric structure with subtle internal zoning and inclusions that add depth and character. The crystal exhibits a soft honey-brown tone, with surfaces ranging from gently lustrous to lightly textured.
Secondary crystal development on the reverse and base enhances the mineralogical interest, giving the specimen a more complex and three-dimensional structure than typical single-crystal thumbnails.
The overall composition is compact and stable, making it a strong example of structurally expressive barite from this 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.
