Cinnabar Twin on Dolomite

0 for sale·Member since 2026
Dimensions: 5.4 x 3.7 x 3.5cm. Location: Tongren Mine, Bijiang, Guizhou, China The twinning is perfect, the crystal has a beautiful luster and a lovely silvery-red color. Discovered between 1985 and 1995. Due to high demand from collectors for these superb specimens, many pieces in matrix were falsified! (The matrix mounting is very well executed). This one is, of course, natural (checked and guaranteed by us). As it is a photosensitive mineral, it is best to protect it from light (especially direct natural light). Dimensions without the acrylic base, which is supplied with the mineralogical specimen. The mineral is not glued to the base (flexible sealant).
