You are looking at a fantastic piece of crystallized native bimuth. This extraordinary specimen features two kinds of the sought native element. One the one hand there is "knitted" so called "feather-bismuth" as free crystallized large aggregates, on the other hand there are excellent developed hexagonal blades with distinct striation. Both kinds of bismuth are high metallic lustrous, sharp edged and the colour is typically bronze tombac coloured. A real masterpiece.
