Description

Very interesting specimen of native silver and kongsbergite tree-shaped crystals.

This quarry was closed long time ago, and now is restored so new samples no more appear today.

The sample is presented in urn 4x4 cm. and stuck with hot glue, but due their fragility, a filament may be released during transport.
