*** Please Note that There is a Crack Long the Bottom ***
*** It Looks Like You Could Easily Break It Off Cleanly with a Screwdriver, But Seems Sturdy Enough Not to Just Break As It Is ***
*** If You Do Break It Cleanly, You'd End Up with a Better UV Specimen & 1 or More Smaller Covellite Specimens ***
*** I Just Didn't Have the Time or I Would Have Broken It Myself ***
