Cornwall, England

Description/Interesting Notes:

A fantastic, old time example of cassiterite var. wood tin from Cornwall!!! This specimen is a text-book perfect example of this unique cassiterite varietal!!! This specimen not only exhibits outstanding, very attractive wood grain-like patterns and concentric banding, it is also part of a larger circle - giving the imression of an actual tree limb cross section!!! This is an OUTSTANDING example of Cornish wood tin!!! This specimen is very heavy for its size and has attractive, slightly rounded features!!! This specimen is simply gorgeous in person!!! OLD material!!! This specimen is from the University of Delaware Mineralogical Museum and retains an affixed catalogue number 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!!!
