Item Description
Hachite is an ultra rare Ag-Tl-Pb-As sulfosalt and is unique to the famous Lengenbach Quarry. It is isostructural with wallisite. The orange arrow points toward a tiny, 1 mm, brilliant metallic, equant, complex crystal on the sugary dolomite and next to a sculptural field of sparkly, pyrite microcrystals. Ex Will Henderson Collection and obtained from Roberto Allori.
