Item Description

Scintillating, metallic, native bismuth microcrystals richly cover three sides of this very rich bismuth ore from the historic Schneeberg District of Germany. Hefty for its size. Rich bismuth ore! Comes with an expertly handwritten, faded label from an older collection. The collection this came out of was a museum stash dating to prior to World War I. MUCH BETTER IN PERSON! The high sparkle of the crystals made photography difficult.
