Cassiterite with Albite
specimen number:
2454253
location:
Linopolis, Divino das Laranjeiras, Doce valley, Minas Gerais, Brazil
description:
Wonderful lustrous black twin crystal groupings of cassiterite, the prominent 12.0 centimeter in size, scattered throughout this crystallized sparkling white albite crystal matrix. Measures 9.0 x 8.5 x 7.0 cm. Very minimal micro-chipping present, this tiny and normally only seen with the aid of a magnifying loupe. Overall I think in very good condition and quite nice for the species from Brazil. Shipping weight: 0.64 pounds. Ex Jordi Povill collection.
