Meteorite with sulphur crystals on a calcareous matrix from Le Cetine di Cotorniano Mine, Chiusdino, Siena Province, Tuscany, Italy.
AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
On a calcareous matrix, sulfur crystallized, giving life to gleaming crystals. The peculiarity of this specimen is its provenance. It actually comes from the famous Cetine mine, known to collectors not only for Stibnite, but also for numerous other rare minerals such as Cetineite, Valentinite, Brizzite, etc. Sample collected by me in 1979. Photographed under intense light.
The specimen is photographed under intense professional light to best highlight details and color. Any slight differences 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.
