Item Description

An impressive, sculptural mass of partially euhedral, lustrous, lightly iridescent, bronze-gray native bismuth strikingly accented with a vein of bright silver-metallic molybdenite with an impactful large molybdenite plate on the backside. The several large crystal faces really add pizzazz to this very fine and uncommon combination from this famous locale. Ex Bob Trimingham Collection and formerly in the Dave & Emily Stoudt Collection, according to Bob's label. Hefty and rich ore at 380 grams.
