Description/Interesting Notes:
A terrific example of this very rare platinum and palladium bismuth telluride from Nevada!!! This specimen
consists of minute grains of moncheite in association with pyrite that is
scattered throughout the matrix!!! Upon close inspection with a loupe or scope one can see numerous
minute silvery areas with some slightly iridescent tarnish!!! Very rare 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!!! 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 FEBRUARY 14th!!!
