Irv Brown [SH2003] The main rhomb is included bottom-to-top by a single Hubnerite that extends almost to the edge of the specimen. From Steve Behling of the Collector's Edge: Rob's Pocket was found in August 1997 Hedgehog Pocket was found in Sept '96 Pockets were less than 50 feet apart ... similar mineral assemblage ... Rhodo, Quartz, Huebnerite ... as a general rule, Rob's Pocket pieces have a little stronger red color and often better luster than the Hedgehog. ----- Photos ©2005 Richard Geiger label Mineral Occurances
