RM1870   Nickelskutterudite

Solid cluster of intergrown nickelskutterudite (formerly called chloanthite) from the historic Schlema-Hartenstein District. Chloanthite is now regarded as an arsenic-deficient variety of nickelskutterudite or simply as a synonym for nickelskutterudite. Nowadays is very complicate find specimens of this size and quality. Complex crystals, bright, with faces... A piece highly valued by mineralogists. From the Type Locality. Formerly in the collection of Gerd Resag. Only for "deep & dark collectors".

Size: 11.5 x 8.8 x 3.6 cm.
Main crystal: 5 mm. aggr.
Found in ±1960.
