Acanthite

Acanthite

Mina da Cata, Guanajuato, Mexico

3.5cm x  2.5cm

This superb miniature acanthite features wonderful balanced symmetry. Dozens of bright, sharp hoppered crystals came together to form a perfect conifer tree shaped specimen that displays beautifully from every angle. A small calcite decorates this lovely treasure. It’s damage free and extremely aesthetic.
