Stibiotantalite from Zambezia Province, Mozambique

Exceptional quality for these crystals of Stiobiotantalite, partly gemmes and translucent, which reveal a superb golden color with backlighting. The crystals are perfectly formed with beautiful endings. The light and translucent areas, honey/caramel color, represent Stibiotantalite in its purest and most gem-like form. They capture the light beautifully with a very bright glow. The darker and opaque areas, dark brown to black, mark the natural and sought-after presence of Bismuth, indicating the transition from this mineral to Bismutotantalite. Technical specimen, exceptional discovery in 2026 at Muiane in Mozambique.
