Item Description

Columbite-(Fe) is one of the most well-known niobate minerals on earth. This material was often called Ferro-Columbite, and you'll still see that name on labels today. This piece is good sized, fairly sharp, well-formed, thick, heavy (for its size) prismatic crystal of jet black Columbite-(Fe) from an undisclosed locality in Madagascar The piece is in good shape overall, as the front/display side is in good shape, but the back is not complete. This is certainly an older specimen, as I haven't seen any new specimens of Columbite coming out of Madagascar in many years. Ex Colin Manlove collection. Valued at $950.
