Description/Interesting Notes:
A magnificent example of this rare platinum bearing species from Canada!!! This specimen is from the incredible new find that has
produced what are undoubtedly the finest examples of the species known from Canada!!! This specimen hosts a prominent, brilliantly
metallic crystal measuring 4.4mm proudly perched on the matrix!!! The crystal is complete and in fantastic condition all around (areas that
might appear to be damage in the pics are actually just areas of complexity, not damage)!!! It is my understanding that in some cases the
crystals are not firmly attached to the matrix and are sometimes reattached with a special adhesive - although it is undetectable, it is
my understanding that this is the case
with this specimen - make no mistake however, it does not affect its display qualities whatsoever!!! The crystal IS embedded in the
matrix, not affixed on top of it - it is in its totally natural, original presentation and was professionally done!!! Although
I would not ordinarily offer a specimen that has been reattached, there are rare circumstances where specimens
are of such merit that I will make an allowance for this!!! This is a
rare and valuable specimen - you do not want to miss out on this rare opportunity!!!
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 MAY 24th!!!
