Bournonite : PbCuSbS3, Quartz : SiO2, Pyrite : FeS2

Machacamarca District (Colavi District), Cornelio Saavedra Province, Potosí Department, Bolivia

A rather unusual large plate of bournonite crystals, all showing sharp UNTWINNED crystals to 2.25 cm in size. This is actually more uncommon, compared to the twinne dform of the mineral. The crystals form this locality are sharp and gun-metal lustrous, making for very dramatic bournonites. The matrix contrasts a bit more in person than it appears, ...

4.3 x 3.1 x 1.3 cm. About four months ago, there was a new find of Bournonites at Machacamarca, and these are some of the best pieces to come out in a long time. This specimen is one of the top miniatures that I’ve seen from the find featuring sharp, steel-grey color, lustrous, rather thick blades of Bournonite. The main Bournonite crystal is in ...

This specimen is from the find about 5 years ago, when some of the finest Bolivian Bournonites were collected. ...
