Description: Stibnite Hunan Province, China 205.0 x 125.0 x 121.0 mm Multiple thick lustrous black crystals of Stibnite to 125 x 17 x 9 mm with a slight bluish cast make up this exceptional 3-dimensional specimen. Small secondary needles of Stibnite are perched on some of the larger Stibnite crystals. In excellent condition. Based on the age of the specimen, I suspect this is actually from Wuling Mine, Qingjiang, Wuning Co., Jiujiang Prefecture, Jiangxi Province, China and was labeled Hunan because it was sold in Changsha.
