Description

Classic from Austria: a vuggy matrix hosts dark purplish-reddish radial dull aggregates of kermesite. Some tiny stibnite also present. Comes with old label which erroneously states Schlatming. The specimen is quite for sure from Stadtschlaining, which is the best known Sb mineralization of Austria. Schladming  is very different. An old and rare sample from the 1991 closed mine.
