Description/Interesting Notes:
A rare, old time example of mercurian tetrahedrite from the type locality in Austria!!! This specimen hosts a handsome cluster of sharp, prominent crystals
of mercurian tetrahedrite, known as "Schwazite" in association with a small amount of quartz matrix!!! The crystals exhibit
complex habits and the characteristic black color indicative of this rare tetrahedrite varietal!!! Rare, old time material from the
classic locality!!! This specimen retains an old Schortmann's label as well!!!
The pics hardly do it justice!!! Must be seen in person to be fully appreciated!!!
Good luck and be sure to check out my other exciting mineral auctions on ebay!!! STAY TUNED!!! MORE AUCTIONS WILL BE ADDED SATURDAY NIGHT FOR A SPECIAL 5-DAY AUCTION, ENDING THURSDAY JULY 28th!!!
