Sharp Lustrous Skutterudite Crystals
Sharp Lustrous Skutterudite Crystals from Bou Azzer District, Tazenakht, Ouarzazate Province, Morocco
Collection Robert Lavinsky
Description Superb, brilliantly-lustrous, unusually well-formed crystals of this rare nickel species. Note the quality of the facets, like Garnet but with metallic luster. This is an excellent specimen for the size as most such specimens have nice crystals stuck in clunky matrix but this one displays nicely and the crystals are so 3-dimensional.
Locality Bou Azzer District, Tazenakht, Ouarzazate Province, Morocco
Dimensions 4.3 x 2.3 x 2.0 cm.
Specimen Grade C
