Stibnite

Description Tabs

Description
Locality: 
Hillgrove, Sandon County, New South Wales, Australia
Size Range: 
Small miniature (3-4.5 cm)
Size: 
3.6 × 0.9 × 0.6 cm
Description

A single sharp stibnite crystal with a slight natural bend and good metallic lustre, From one side this appears to be a single crystal and viewed from the reverse side three crystals in parallel growth.

I am not sure whether this is parallel growth or some form of twinning or half hearted attempt at hopper growth, I leave it to those far more knowledgable than I to decide.

This is an attractive and distinct stibnite specimen and a worthy addition to anyone seeking an Australian stibnite to add to their collection.
