Huanggang Fe-Sn deposit, Hexigten Banner, Chifeng City, Inner Mongolia, ChinaA novelty at St. Marie 2012. Group of crystals of Löllingite, very well defined for the species, with polycrystalline growths, very bright, and with some radial, not epitactic, small dipyramidal crystals of Arsenopyrite on the surface of their faces. They are on matrix, with Calcite and Magnetite. Both the Löllingite and Arsenopyrite have been analyzed.

Huanggang Fe-Sn deposit, Hexigten Banner, Chifeng City, Inner Mongolia, ChinaDimensions: 8.4 cm x 6.1 cm x 6.1 cm
8.4 x 6.1 x 6.1 cm. A rare combination piece with fluorite growing off aesthetic, large lollingite crystals. The lollingites (a species related to arsenopyrite) from this mine are being hailed as best of species material. Spear shaped, lustrous, silvery crystals to 7.9 cm in length host a complex, glassy and gemmy, colorless fluorite crystal (2.5 cm in length). From recent finds of spring 2012. Unlike most such pieces found this has dramatic 3-dimensional aesthetics and clearly shows the bladed crystals standing up.

Huanggang Fe-Sn deposit, Hexigten Banner, Chifeng City, Inner Mongolia, ChinaDimensions: 10.6 cm x 8.5 cm x 7.4 cm
10.6 x 8.5 x 7.4 cm. The lollingites (a species related to arsenopyrite) from this mine are being hailed as best of species material. This piece features spear-shaped, lustrous, silvery crystals to approximately 3 inches, decorated with small quartz crystals. A nice combination specimen from recent finds of mid-2012 (found in April). Unlike most such pieces found this has dramatic 3-dimensional aesthetics and clearly shows the bladed crystals standing up.
