Item Description
Stibarsen is a rare natural alloy of arsenic and antimony. This impressive large and hefty mass of rich ore is solid stibarsen. It has splendent silver-metallic luster on fresh faces and lustrous metallic-gray luster on natural faces. An old cloth number is attached on the back. The old synonym is allemontite, named for the French Type Locality. Undoubtably older material, and certainly uncommon in this size and richness from Sonora. Mass is 592 grams ...Heavy metal!
