Wendy & Frank Melanson Collection This would be a beautiful TN cassiterite from anywhere, but I think it’s particularly impressive from Panasqueira. Obviously Panasqueira is much more famous for apatite, siderite, arsenopyrite and ferberite, but the sporadic cassiterite crystals are also top quality. This cluster has particularly nice luster and good crystal form.
