Shimen (Jiepiayu) Mine, Shimen County, Changde Prefecture, Hunan Province, China
46mm x 39mm x 27mm
minID: U5K-N9L
Brilliant, transparent red Realgar crystals perched on a translucent single Calcite scalenohedron. Older Shimen mine specimen that has been kept in dark storage so the color is fresh and lustrous. Like many Chinese minerals from this era, these were the best examples of their specie and are no longer being mined. A few crystals have slight edge wear but overall this is in pristine condition.
