Tetrahedrite
specimen number:
1801080
location:
Crinnis Mine, Carlyon, St Austell, Cornwall, England, UK
description: Extremely large sharp non-lustrous crystals of tetrahedrite to 2.8 cm in size over the top of a 7.5 x 5.5 x 2.5 cm matrix. Very minimal micro-chipping present, still I think in very good condition. Outstanding in terms of size and even aesthetics for the species from Cornwall, I think this quite rare. Several previous labels with this one as well. Ex Ed Raines collection.
Size: 7.5 x 5.5 x 2.5 cm (small-cabinet)
