Specimen size: 3 x 2.2 x 2.1 cm
Main crystal size: 0.2 x 0.2 cm
XM130EC
Very aerial radial aggregate of Stibnite crystals, on a Calcite matrix, with very well defined crystal forms, excellent terminations and with the typical Baiut habit, short and flattened.
The specimen comes from the Uwe Niemeyer collection.
Baiut, Maramures Romania (±1970)
Specimen size: 6 x 4.8 x 3.8 cm
Main crystal size: 2 x 0.9 cm
