Description
Have I mentioned before that Japanese mineral specimens are high in demand. There is a dedicated group of collectors who snap them up whenever they can. Here is one for them: A fairly large native Arsenic specimen with triangular crystals (true to their trigonal crystal symmetry). They show a dull metallic luster and a anthracite-colored. This is a true Japanese classic from the Akadani Mine, and abandoned mine that worked a Arsenic and Antimony deposit, and is known for the world’s best Arsenic crystals. Need I say more?
