Description

These stout fan shaped stibnite clusters mainly came out in the early 1980’s. I bought a batch of them then but this was the only one that I kept for myself. I liked the aesthetics of this, and it’s in excellent condition. Good Peruvian stibnites were never very common in the mineral market!
