Ferberite
specimen number:
8035497
location:
Tazna mine, Potosi, Bolivia
description:
Wonderful lustrous black ferberite crystal measuring 7.5 x 7.0 x 5.5 cm in size standing up from a crystallized ferberite matrix with minor siderite. Slight chipping on what I consider the back of the piece, as well as micro-chipping across the top termination edge. Still I think in very good condition and a wonderful large example for the species from this locality. Sits perfectly by itself or display.
Size: 11.0 x 9.0 x 8.0 cm (cabinet)
