Acanthite

Locality: Fresnillo de Gonzalez Echeverria (Fresnillo), Mun. de Fresnillo, Zacatecas, Mexico

2.2 x 1.9 x 1.0 cm. A drop-dead gorgeous and aesthetic Fresnillo acanthite thumbnail. A super-sharp, lustrous, 1.1 cm, rounded acanthite crystal sits atop branching stalks of acanthite and is nicely accented by a bit of quartz. This showy piece has a very anthropmorphic look. The large crystal looks like a head.
