Stibnite with Quartz
specimen number:
2451250
location:
Yaogangxian Mine, Hunan, China
description:
Extremely rich bright metallic thin needle like crystals of stibnite to 2.0 cm in length very thick over the top of a 13.0 x 8.0 x 8.0 cm matrix with crystallized quartz. This came to us labeled as bismuthinite, however I believe that pretty much all of these metallic needle like crystals from this locality have been proven to be stibnite. Very impressive example for the species at this locality and sits perfectly by itself for display. Shipping weight: 2.39 pounds. Ex Jordi Povill collection.
Size: 13.0 x 8.0 x 8.0 cm (cabinet)
