Excellent aggregate of prismatic stibnite crystals, very brilliant, with iridescence, which are disposed forming radial aggregates. They are partially covered with fine needles of boulangerite crystals. With small doubly terminated quartz crystals. A very aesthetic, colourful piece with the J. Viñals label and from the E. Nicolau collection.

Size: 6.4 x 5.2 x 3 cm.
Found in ±2000.

A very interesting specimen of sphalerite that shows a very aesthetic cyclic twin, unusual for the species and for this classic mine. Very brlliant, with galena crystals on matrix.

Size: 6.2 x 4.9 x 2.8 cm.
Main crystal: 3 cm.
Found in ±1980.

Classic locality

Thick and good size stibnite crystal from this classic Romanian mine. It presents an elongated prism, striated, with an excellent brightness. Very rich in facets in the upper terminal part, with complex bipyramidal faces. Accompanied by baryte cristals as minor matrix. Nowadays it is difficult to find specimens of this quality from this mine. It comes from a former Austrian collection.

Size: 7.6 x 2.3 x 1.4 cm.
Found in ±1970.

Classic locality

Very thick and good size stibnite crystal from this classic Romanian mine. It presents an elongated prism, striated, with an excellent brightness. Very rich in facets in the upper terminal part, with complex bipyramidal faces. On the main crystal we observe a group of crystals of the same mineral, finer, that suppose a second crystallization. Nowadays it is difficult to find specimens of this quality from this mine. It comes from a former Austrian collection.

Size: 6.9 x 1.7 x 1.8 cm.
Found in ±1970.

Excellent specimen from Herja mine, a world-class Romanian locality for stibnite. This piece is formed by numerous groups of divergent prismatic crystals, very brilliant and with visible terminal faces. Accompanied by small rhombohedral dolomite crystals. It belongs from a former Austrian collection.

Size: 7.4 x 6.5 x 3.5 cm.
Found in ±1980.

Classic locality

More than an excellent specimen from Herja mine, a world-class Romanian locality for stibnite. This piece, of a very good size, is formed by several groups of thick prismatic crystals with visible terminal faces. We can observe a second generation of thin crystals. Nowadays it is difficult to find samples of this quality, for museum display cases. It belongs from a former Austrian collection.

Size: 13 x 5.7 x 4.5 cm.
Main crystal: 11 x 0.6 cm.
Found in ±1980.

Classic locality

Excellent specimen from Herja mine, a world-class Romanian locality for stibnite. This piece is formed by numerous groups of divergent prismatic crystals, very brilliant and with visible terminal faces. Photographs do not do justice to the beauty of this specimen. Nowadays it is difficult to find samples of this fine quality. It belongs from a former Austrian collection.

Size: 9.8 x 5.6 x 3.7 cm.
Main crystal: 26 x 3 mm.
Found in ±1970.

Aesthetic specimen of calcite crystals that form this semi-globular aggregate, with luster. It is accompanied by a small matrix with quartz and chalcopyrite crystals. A classic from the Romanian mine of Boldut; from the A. Trigo collection (Mataró). It shows an intense fluorescence under LW-UV light.

Size: 5.5 x 5 x 2.9 cm.
Found in ca. 2005.

Fluorescent under long wave UV

Nice specimen formed by rosette aggregates of rhodochrosite, with a delicate pink tone, accompanied by tetrahedrite and chalcopyrite crystals. On a matrix with quartz.

Size: 7.5 x 6.8 x 5.8 cm.

Group of small, shiny, gray metallic blades of flattened Chalcostibite crystals, some of them very aerial disposed. Accompanied by brilliant Tetrahedrite and Quartz. Chalcostibite was uncommon at Cavnic mine till 90's finding.
