Cassiterite
specimen number:
8033792
location:
Viloco mine, Loayza, La Paz, Bolivia
description:
Outstanding high quality large cabinet example for the species with lustrous translucent brownish-black sharp crystals measuring to 3.0 cm in size across the top of this matrix. There is very slight and sparse minimal micro-chipping present, I still think this is in super condition, especially considering how many crystals are present on this large piece. Displays very well on its own. Superb example for cassiterite.
Size: 17.0 x 12.0 x 12.0 cm (large-cabinet)
