Description/Interesting Notes:
A fantastic, historic example of alabandite from this famous old locality!!! This specimen hosts
several significant crystals of alabandite in matrix!!! The crystals are actually quite well formed for the locality!!! Upon
close inspection, the alabandite crystals show areas of sharply defined crystalline detail!!! This specimen is way better than
the pics show!!! This specimen retains an old, affixed label from A.E. Foote as well!!! Simply a magnificent example of this
species from this historic locale!!! Old material!!!
The pics hardly do it justice!!! Must be seen in person to be fully appreciated!!! This specimen is from the collection
of Tony Nikischer and retains its original personal collection label as well!!! We just acquired the 6000+ specimen PERSONAL collection
of Tony Nikischer and there are going to be some very exciting minerals to come in the upcoming days and weeks!!!
Good luck and be sure to check out my other exciting mineral auctions on ebay!!!
STAY TUNED!!! MORE AUCTIONS WILL BE ADDED MONDAY NIGHT FOR A SPECIAL 3-DAY AUCTION, ENDING THURSDAY JANUARY 31st!!!
