Description/Interesting Notes:
A terrific example of bornite from Kazakhstan!!! This specimen consists of a quartz crystal covered matrix that hosts a well-formed, undamaged
crystal of bornite!!! Bornite is almost always encountered as a massive ore, however there are rare circumstances where it occurs as
fine crystals!!! This crystal has complex faces with a somewhat metallic luster and measure in size to over
1.3cm!!! There are also several smaller crystals on the reverse as well!!! The pics hardly do it justice!!! This specimen
is from the collection of Frank Tobey and retains an old label from Carter Rich as well!!!
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 NOVEMBER 18th!!!
