Huanuni is actually the RICHEST Cassiterite deposit in the world, and although it’s best known for its phosphate species, occasionally some fine quality Cassiterite specimens are f ound. This attractive, classic, sharp, lustrous, jet-black group of “drill bit” twinned crystals is certainly fine quality for the species and the locality. Good quality all the way around, and if you’re a collector of Cassiterites or Bolivian minerals, this would make a great addition to your collection. Specimen # BOL711B178 Show more
