Stibnite

Ichinokawa Mine, Saijo, Ehime Prefecture, Shikoku, Japan

99.0 x 69.0 x 44.0 mm

This is a complex group of parallel to sub-parallel crystals of Stibnite to 57 mm, forming a nice 3-dimensional specimen from this famous Japanese locality. The Stibnite is of classic form and gun-metal gray in color. Collected circa 1879, it was previously in the Harvard University collection, and a Trafford-Flynn specimen. No damage.
