Item Description
Click here for a video of this specimen!
A really beautiful display-quality classic from one of the richest Molybdenite mines in history, for mineral specimens - but from which pieces are now seldom seen on the market. Aesthetically perched on a quartz matrix, is a single, large, foliated crystal of molybdenite, 7 cm across. Waxy to the touch and with superior metallic luster, this old-timer is an outstanding example of the species. It is cleanly repaired at the contact of the crystal sheave to the matrix. Valued $1500 for aesthetics, size, and how stunningly well it displays in any cabinet!
