Description

This is a great ore specimen from Zinnwald in Saxony, Germany. A stout piece of almost pure Stannite intergrown with tabular Zinnwaldite. Actually I would say nothing special, but such a rich Stannite from Zinnwald I have not seen often over the years. A great opportuniy to get hold of a fine and unusual Saxonian ore piece.
