Calcite with Stibnite inclusions (Ref: 8.1-410)
Xikuangshan Sb Deposit, Lengshuijiang Co., Loudi Pref., Hunan Province, China
82mm x 50mm
minID: AT6-9QC
A top quality example from a small recent (2008) find of rhombohedral Calcites included by lustrous Stibnite. A few of these were sold in Munich last year but nearly all had damage. We were fortunate to obtain at the source a few fine, esthetic and quite pristine pieces. There have been no more since. These are far more delicate and rare that the material found at Nandan in 1998, I expect these will also become modern classics and quite sought after. The glassy, translucent to transparent rhomb is 5.5 CM wide and has no eye visible damage. Magnification shows only a few rough spots on edges. The Stibnites are clearly visible inside the calcite. Esthetic and displayable from several angles. From: Well-Arranged Molecules
