***Bringing you the very finest minerals ebay has to offer!!***


Tantalite-(Fe) "Ferrotantalite"

Weekapaug, Westerly, Washington Co., Rhode Island

from .5cm to 2cm

20 specimens

Ex. Frank J. Tobey II Collection


Description/Interesting Notes:

A unique and rare example of ferrotantalite from Rhode Island!!! While this is a group of 20 individual crystals, there are five that are real stand-outs in my opinion!!! While the others are more or less alluvial, these five crystals exihibit very good crystal form and well defined crystal faces!!! These specimens are "glacial erratics" as noted by Tobey's detailed label - meaning that they were not native to the area's geology but were transported to this location via glacial movement!!! Rare material from Rhode Island!!! The pics hardly do it justice!!! Good luck and be sure to check out my other exciting mineral auctions on ebay!!! STAY TUNED!!! MORE AUCTIONS WILL BE ADDED SATURDAY NIGHT FOR A SPECIAL 5-DAY AUCTION, ENDING THURSDAY DECEMBER 2nd!!!
