Detailed Description

A group of absolutely gorgeous cassiterite crystals from the Viloco Mine. They are sharp, brilliantly lustrous and beautifully twinned. However, what makes them stand out from most recent specimens is their colour – under light they are a wonderful translucent golden brown, with some darker zones. In excellent condition, no damage. A spectacular Bolivian cassiterite.
