Group of stephanite crystals that form a floating cluster, with various interpenetrated prismatic crystals, with defined faces and edges and brilliance. This specimen comes from an unusual Mexican mine for the species and is accompanied by the label of a well-known mineral dealer in Madrid. The piece belongs from the Nicolau collection (Barcelona). A very aesthetic and representative miniature of the species.
A very ancient specimen showing a quartz matrix with carbonates and pyrite crystals. Covered with thin boulangerite needle-like crystals. Very brilliant and dotted with calcite or dolomite colourless rombohedrons. The original handwritten label of the Astor collection, dated in 1978, indicates it comes from Concepción del Oro, but we believe we can say it is from the Mazapil area, a locality very close to Concepción. In those years, geographical themes were not so determined. Adquired in a very "old mineral shop" in Plaça Reial square, Barcelona.
Excellent specimen formed by very numerous aggregates of pyrargyrite crystals. Intense brightness, with red transparence, crystals are very rich in faces. We have analyzed some of the crystals and we will send the results to the buyer. For display, but also to observe/enjoy under the magnifying glass.
These specimens from Zacatecas are among the most well-known jamesonites in the world, nowadays not easy to find in the marked. This piece features superb, acicular groups of steel-grey jamesonite with brilliant pyrite and quartz crystals.From the former Hubin collection, Belgium.
