Description

Remarkably rich stibnite specimen given by hundreds of interconnected crystals of pretty good lustre. The white tufts are supposedly aragonite or calcite (not analysed, but rarer Sb species cannot be excluded).
Defunct locality, quite a connoisseur specimen of excellent quality. Rather delicate, customers should account for a few crystals and crumbs to fall off during shipping (although the specimen will be packed appropriately).
