FWG-QE8 Hematite Fe₂O₃

Owenahincha, Cork County, Munster, Ireland

Dimensions: 5 mm x 3 mm x 0.8 mm
Largest Crystal Size: 5 mm

Despite the fact that I visited this locality numerous times and I managed to find even big chunks of hematite, this is the only hematite CRYSTAL I have ever found there. It sits on white quartz with a quartz crystal beside, some pink/orange feldspar (?) also present. It was found in a quartz vein partially filled with black, thick clay.
