Alabandite Uchucchacua Mine, Oyon Province, Lima Department, Peru 8.3cm x 4.32cm x 3.2cm

Description/Interesting Notes: A fantastic example of alabandite from this extraordinary new find in Peru!!! Examples of crystalline alabandite are extremely rare and these specimens from Peru represent the absolute pinnacle of the species!!! This specimen hosts a broad face loaded with sharp crystals of alabandite!!! The alabandite crystals have sharp faces with marked luster!!! Many of the crystals exhibit sharp spinel-law twinning as well!!! The white matrix frames the smartly contrasting jet-black alabandite crystals quite handsomely!!! This is a magnificent example of crystalline alabandite from this incredible new find!!! It is my understanding that the small zone that contained this material has already been exhausted and it appears that what little material was already on the market has all but disappeared!!! No doubt this material is a future classic!!! The pics hardly do it justice!!! Good luck and be sure to check out my other exciting mineral auctions on ebay!!! STAY TUNED!!!
