Chloanthite from Schneeberg is among the desirable species from Erzgebirge, and this is a good one. We see silvery crystals with a cubed basic shape and bevelled edges. The crystals are sharp edged and they are showing a high metallic sheen. A good Schneeberg classic, not easy to purchase nowadays.
