Bismuthinite : Bi2S3

Kingsgate, Gough Co., New South Wales, Australia

this just has to be the most unusual arrangement of Bismuthihite Ive seen, the needles which are quite irridescent, radiate quite evenly from a core thread and rest on a matrix and adjacent to trigonal? yellowish xtls, both species yet to be identified FOV ~2mm
You can also just see a number of individual needles on the matrix
