Dull dark grey long strands of Alabandite crystals to over 3cm. This is by all accounts a very nice, choice, specimen.
A note from a fine mineralogist:
First, no Alabandite was found at the Proprietary (Broken Hill Proprietary; BHP) Mine at Broken Hill. It is probably from the Zinc Corp. (ZC) Mine, 20st Level at Broken Hill. This is where these "Plumrose Spray" crystal groups were found. Second, current research has now found that these "Plumrose Spray" crystal groups are actually Alabandite pseudomorphs of Ramberite crystals not native Alabandite crystals.

This is one of the bigger Boleite crystals you will ever see. IT is a whopping 1cm on edge with a number of smaller crystals. They don't get much bigger than this according to the Mineraolgical Record: Special Issue #1 (Mexico) January-February 1998 Volume 29 Number 1, page 38 under the description of Boleite the author states that "Cubic crystals of millimetric size (up to 5 mm) have been found in abundance, while those approaching a centimeter are very rare. Crystals of larger size (the record being 2.5 cm) are highly exceptional.....
Though the one corner has a small ding the price has been adjusted accordingly. Large crystals of Boleite like this are seldom seen on the market and one little ding should not distract from its overall beauty. Must be insured and extra shipping will apply. Ex Carter Rich (see Prov. tab).

Excellent specimen of nicely crystallized Chondrodite. The largest crystal is about 1.5cm. The large cluster is 2.5cm wide. The faces were are to capture on my instant poleroid, but you can make out a few. It comes with an old handwritten label stating from "P. Zodac via L. Conklin. 7/72"So, kind of a historic piece. Please see the prov. tab.
