Ferberite (ex Rich Kosnar Collection)

Item Description

A beautiful display specimen from this classic locality. Chicote Grande is one of the "forgotten" mines in Bolivia over the last 30 years as very little material has been available on the market, but in its day, this locality provided collectors with some very attractive display specimens. Several sharp, well-formed, beautiful black tabular crystals of Ferberite, along with a few "X"-shaped or "butterfly" twinned crystals make up this attractive toenail specimen. From the collection of Rich Kosnar, whose hand-written tag is glued to the base of the piece. A great piece from this well known Bolivian mine.
