Bismuthinite-Included Fluorite with Sphalerite (Huanggang Fe-Sn Deposit, Hexigten Banner, Chifeng City, Inner Mongolia, China) - 2404_BFS1
3.8 x 4.1cm
As a combination, bismuthinite-included fluorite is not rare, but it is definitely very uncommon.
Hailing from the Huanggang mine in Inner Mongolia, this unique fluorite comes with the additional inclusion of Bismuthinite needles. It also has shiny sheets of sphalerite in the matrix, giving it an additional layer of dimension.
Bismuthinite is fascinating because of the different forms it takes. In fluorite, it grows as needles. Manmade, it grows in iridescent, pyramidal square-loop structures. And elsewhere, it grows prismatic to acicular.

For every $15 spent, we will plant 1 tree to offset the carbon cost of mining, shipping and packaging crystals. These are real and natural products, and so might have some flaws or imperfections. We have done our best to pick the best pieces available, but nature is often imperfectly perfect. Therefore, please only make the purchase if you are alright with this.
