Canfieldite with Acanthite Himmelsfurst Mine, Brand-Erbisdorf, Freiberg District, Erzgebirge, Saxony, Germany 7.33cm x 5.74cm x 4.2cm Freiberg Mining Academy (Bergakademie Freiberg)

Description/Interesting Notes: A fantastic, old time example of this very rare native silver and germanium bearing species from this classic German locality!!! This specimen hosts groups of highly complex crystals of canfieldite to over 2.3mm!!! Although it is difficult to appreciate from the pics, the canfieldite is quite well crystallized - present as lustrous, darkly colored crystals!!! There are some small veins of massive dark gray acanthite present as well!!! This specimen retains an old label from the Freiberg Academy!!! The old label uses an antiquated German term to describe the matrix, "braunspat" which can be synonymous with a number of carbonate species!!! This is an outstanding example of this very rare species!!! OLD material from this classic and historic locality!!! The pics hardly do it justice!!! Must be seen in person to be fully appreciated!!!
