Stibiconite pseudo after Stibnite (ex Dr. Miguel Romero Collection)

Item Description

These pseudomorphs are a Mexican classic. The material is instantly recognizable, with the gentle yellow color Stibiconite that has replaced the original Stibnite crystals, retaining the prismatic form. The pseduo is so well-detailed that you can actually see the striation lines of the original Stibnite crystals. The piece has a beautiful triangular shape, but the terminations are contacted. From the collection of Senator / Dr. Miguel Romero of Teuhuacan, Mexico (Collection #6276).
