Valentinite (rare)

Item Description

This is a good example of the rare antimony oxide, Valentinite (Pronounced: Vah-LEN-tin-ite). The piece features sharp, fine quality, lustrous, slight gemmy, wedge-shaped crystals of Valentinite measuring up to 5 mm sitting atop massive Galena. This specimen was mined circa 2000, and I have not seen any more specimens from this mine since that time. Here's a great chance to have a matrix specimen of a very hard to find mineral. Species collectors out there should jump on this one. Retail approximate on this specimen is $250-$300.
