RM3066   Fettelite and proustite
More photos

Specimens of fettelite, a complex silver-mercury sulfoarsenide, are very rare and even less so at this size. Under magnification we can observe burgundy red laminar crystals of fettelite, together with idiomorphic crystals of proustite. An exceptional piece.


Size: 9 x 5.2 x 4 cm.

RM3054   Chabazite-Ca
More photos

Rübenkeller is the famous historical locality for chabazite and phillipsite from about 1850 and was very prolific in zeolite specimens in the late 19th century. In this specimen, from the Freiburg Bergakademie, we can see various aggregates of very well defined, pseudocubic, transparent and very bright crystals, which fill the vacuoles of the volcanic rock. It is accompanied by a very interesting old handwritten label.


Size: 5.6 x 4.4 x 2.7 cm.
Main crystal: 3 mm.
Found in ±1880.
