EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the mesmerizing beauty of a Haematite mineral rock, commonly known as kidney ore. The mamillated form of this iron oxide mineral is displayed in all its glory, with colors ranging from metallic black to a subdued red. Haematite is an incredibly widespread and abundant mineral found in various types of rocks - igneous, sedimentary, and metamorphic. Renowned for being the most crucial source of iron ore, Haematite holds immense industrial significance beyond its role in paint manufacturing and polishing compounds. This particular sample was discovered in Morocco and boasts an approximate size of 40mm. The crystal-like layers within the rock create a visually striking effect that captures the essence of geology at its finest. Its earthy tones combined with crystalline structures make it a true marvel to behold. The presence of chalcedony adds another layer of complexity to this already fascinating specimen. Alfred Pasieka's expert photography skills have flawlessly captured every intricate detail present within this Haematite mineral rock print. It serves as a testament to the wonders hidden beneath our planet's surface while reminding us of nature's ability to produce extraordinary formations like these precious deposits.
