Hauerite is a very rare manganese sulfide, and this is an exceptionally large and sharp octahedron. It measures to almost 2 cm on edge and about an inch fully through the longest angle.

MZTN-01 - Hauerite - $ 1250 SOLD Raddusa, Sicily, Italy thumbnail, 1.9 x 1.3 x 1.3 cm ex. Martin Zinn
A sharp, stereotypical hauerite of exceptional symmetry and a quite good size for the species. Not the largest, but certainly bigger than most one sees (averaging 1 cm). And, I am told that this material dates to the mid-1800s - certainly it is seldom seen on the market, and a good crystal like this is hard to come by All Content and Design ©1996-2010 The ArkenstonePowered by http://mineralwebsites.comBy-species Galleries | ||||||||||||||||||||||
