Here we have a truely amazing specimen of native bismuth! There are more important indicators, first is definately the size of the specimen which is realy outstanding. Second is the fact that this cluster is absolutely nicely placed on top of a small piece of matrix. The esthetic speaks for itself. And last but not least, it is extremely well crystallized all around and the luster of the uncountable amount of the crystal faces makes it realy stand out the crowd!
