Stibnite with Dolomite

Item Description

A showy display specimen of these beautiful and fine quality Stibnites from the Xikuangshan Sb deposit featuring a handful of prismatic, striated, highly lustrous, metallic, silvery colored crystals, which are partially coated by light beige colored Dolomite. A few of the crystals show a slightly "bent" habit, which is not unheard of for Stibnite, but it's one of the few minerals that forms crystals with this particular style of growth. It's a wonderful three-dimensional piece with only very minor imperfections. These pieces were mined over a decade ago, and nothing has come out since, so if you missed out on them when they were fresh out of the ground, don't miss out on a chance to get a good quality example from this premier Stibnite locality.
