CW2084 Lucente Molibdenite on matrix crystals, from Perda de Pibera Mine, Gonnosfanadiga, South Sardinia Province, Sardinia, Italy.

AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Two clusters of steel-colored molybdenite crystals, gleaming, emerge from the gray quartz matrix, with excellent color contrast. From a classic Sardinian locality exhausted for decades.

The sample is photographed under intense professional lighting, to best highlight details and color. Any slight variations in color tones depend on the device settings used and/or exposure to ambient or artificial light of different color temperatures.

Seller's Story

We have been collectors since 1972, present as exhibitors at the main mineral exhibitions in Italy and some European ones (Sainte-Marie-Aux-Mines, Monaco, etc.), where you can find us to get to know us in person, exchange opinions, talk about our beloved minerals and, should the auctions end close to an exhibition, deliver your samples directly. All proposed minerals, unless otherwise specified, are photographed using a strong light source, to better show the colors and details of the sample. If you buy multiple minerals in the same auction, we will ship them together and you will only pay the higher shipping costs.
