Large Bright Molybdenite Crystal
Large Bright Molybdenite Crystal from Allies Mine, Deepwater, Gough Co., New South Wales, Australia
Collection Robert Lavinsky
Description A very large, super-bright crystal of Molybdenite from old finds in Australia. The hexagonal form of the crystal is quite clear here, which is rather rare, especially for such a large crystal. Molybdenite forms in super-thin sheets due to its atomic structure, with the atoms lining up on a single plane.
Locality Allies Mine, Deepwater, Gough Co., New South Wales, Australia
Dimensions 8.8 x 5.1 x 1.7 cm.
Specimen Grade C
