Item Description
This is a shockingly good Molybdenite on matrix, with great balance, top luster, and in excellent condition. The crystal measures 2.5 cm across and is tall and is 5 mm thick; quite robust for a Molybdenite from this classic Canadian locale. The crystal is a shiny metallic gray and is nearly a perfect hexagon in shape and reveals almost a layered like texture similar to micas. These Molybdenite crystals are frozen in the milky Quartz matrix and are not easy to collect or prepare. This is a fine miniature for the species with great contrast and composition. The pics convey what a fine miniature this is.
