This specimen contains two rare minerals. Most visible is a translucent brown crust of hedyphane, which covers much of one surface. Also present (visible on the broken surfaces) are hundreds of tiny crystals of brown pyrophanite - these are not visible without a loupe. The hedyphane has a resinous luster, and the crystals are nearly transparent. There is no indication of crystal form.
