Turgite
	Salisbury, Litchfield Co., Connecticut, USA 5.4 x 4.7 x 3.8 cm. Turgite is actually a mixture of goethite and hematite that results from the alteration of goethite. This old-timer specimen from Connecticut has an old Schortmann’s label with it. It is a rounded knob, very lustrous and not all that unattractive for what it is!
