Stibiconite Psm Stibnite With Quartz

Pseudomorph

Description Tabs

Description
Locality: 
Madsan, Camardi, Niğde Province, Turkey
Size Range: 
Museum (18cm plus)
Size: 
21 × 18.5 × 16 cm
Largest Crystal: 
10.00cm
Description

Very large cluster with stibiconite psm. after stibnite crystals up to 10 cm, covered with quartz crystals.

The size is rather impressive. Unfortunately Turkey is in most parts "terra incognita" of mineralogy. There's no information about the locality and therefore I cannot guarantee for the exactness of my locality research, only for Anatolia, Turkey. This is a very heavy and delicate specimen.

It will ship in a large box filled with sawdust or soap powder. Postage will be a little higher than usually.
