Nice sharp single crystal of cassiterite with two smaller crystals attached to the sides. The crystals in the group have great form and typical black color. Minor amounts of muscovite are present on the crystals. The largest crystal is approximately 5.5 cm across and has only a slight bruise along the termination. Great example of a classic European mineral from a long closed location. THE SIZE AND 3-DIMENSIONALITY OF THIS CRYSTAL FOR THE LOCALE IS AMAZING!!!! 5.9 x 5 x 4.9 cm
