Argyrodite Himmelsfurst Mine, Freiberg District, Erzgebirge, Saxony, Germany 1.2cm x 1.05cm x .61cm Ex. T. Raber Collection

Description/Interesting Notes: A fantastic, old time example of this very rare silver germanium sulphide from the type locality in Germany!!! These historic argyrodite specimens from Himmelsfurst date to latter half of the 1800's and are extremely rare today!!! This specimen consists of somewhat botryoidal groups of argyrodite crystals in association with minor pyrite!!! It actually appears that there were two large, interpenetrant octahedral crystals of argyrodite that have been covered with an almost botryoidal layer of argyrodite crystals!!! Upon close inspection in person one can find numerous sharp crystal faces scattered about the rounded subhedral forms!!! There is much more to see upon close study with a loupe or scope!!! Simply an outstanding example of this rare and sought after species!!! The pics hardly do it justice!!! Must be seen in person to be fully appreciated!!!
