Item Description

Stibnites from this district are US classics and are seldom available. This is a showy diverging spray of broad, moderately lustrous, striated, metallic-gray prisms with a bit of attached matrix. One termination is pristine and the other is contacted, on the two large crystals. Excellent material. Documented specimens from the Manhattan Mine are RARE, as most stibnites are from the White Caps Mine. A MUST for the locality or species collector. Value??
