This iridescent piece of silicon carbide (also known as carborundum) was formed in a blast furnace during the production of iron. Not a true mineral, it is still fascinating! Handle with care, you can get splinters of carborundum in your fingers.

Large cabinet specimen: About 4.3" x 2.4" x 1.8" (110mm x 60mm x 45mm)
