Description

A 19th century specimen from Cornwall with old label from an english collector/dealer, unfortunately not providing any locality data. This specimen featuring blackish brown lustrous cassiterite crystals on a metasediment matrix might be from St. Agnes, as some experts presumed, but there are many possibilities. So it will only be labeled "Cornwall" for the moment. A nice one of good size.
