Item Description

From the find that produced the largest crystals of Stibnite seen in the modern era of mineral collecting! This near full cabinet size piece features very good sized, bright, intense metallic silver color, prismatic crystals of Stibnite in a semi"spray"-like formation. You just don't see crystals of this size anymore on the market as it seems that Wuling is not producing them at at this time. Years ago, crystals of this thickness and heft were impossible to obtain, and now that they have disappeared from the market, this is a great chance to get your hands on some of the finest examples of the species extant.
