Summary

Description
English: Baryte, Stibnite
Locality: Manhattan District, Nye County, Nevada, USA (Locality at mindat.org)
Size: small cabinet, 8.7 x 7.0 x 5.9 cm
Stibnite with Barite
This is old classic material, mined several decades to a hundred years ago. VERY FEW old Nevada stibnites from this famous and now defunct district have any kind of modern, world-level aesthetics to them. This one, however, can hold its own. It is nearly pristine, and has a very aesthetic arrangement of radiating crystals from a common center. The crystals reach 3 cm. From an old US collection, this came with only a yellowed label reading "Manhattan" - though whether this refers to the mine, town, or district I cannot say. Small, sharp, gem-clear barites to 4 mm abound in the crevasses between the crystals. I have also chosen not to overclean this to make it bright and shiny - it retains its original patina.
