Rare Gem Cassiterite crystals with golden rosettes of Muscovite from the Panasqueira Mines, Covilha in Castelo Branco, Portugal. Panasqueira is renown for its high quality cassiterite specimens. The highly aesthetic, beautiful cluster of lustrous black (a very deep golden root beer that shows as black) cassiterite crystals is on a bed of sparkling gold Muscovite/ mica in bladed floral formations.

This high quality, collector's specimen is incredibly glassy and produces an amber gold glow on the edges when backlit. The multi sized cassiterires are pyramidic, prismatic, and gemmy with luster and multiple displayed faces! Great cabinet display specimen at about 2.5 x 2 x1.5 inches and includes the mineral ID / locale info card. Bundle discounts available, just let me store know which listings you'd like to bundle!.
