A classic view of the 5cm-wide stibnite-included quartz crystal vein we mined along The crystals occurred on a fault, which mixed and ground the vein contents up Many clear, UN-included quartz crystals were found In fact, these dominated the majority of what I recovered
Stibnite typically forms coarse, irregular masses or radiating sprays of needlelike crystals, but it can also be granular or massive A widespread mineral, stibnite occurs in hydrothermal veins, hot-spring deposits, and replacement deposits that form at low temperatures (up to 400°F/200°C)
Jamesonite typically forms in a unique crystal habit of fine acicular crystals that appear as woven, hair-like fibers It may also form as dense, hairy inclusions within other crystals, such as Calcite, Fluorite, and Barite Jamesonite often forms together with the chemically similar mineral Boulangerite, and it may be very difficult to visually distinguish these two minerals
This stibnite is from the Raura District in the Catajambo Province, Lima, Pe This district encompases over 24 square kilometers in area and is mined by several operations It contains 16 different minerals including stibnite It is a sulfide that contains the elements Sb and S

Stibnite is the most important ore of antimony It is an opaque, metallic mineral that forms fine crystal clusters with long straight or curved individual crystals growing out in many divergent directions The curving of some of the long bladed crystals is due to twinning where one twin plane bends the crystal one direction and

Stibnite White Caps mine, Manhattan, Manhattan district, Toquima range, Nye county, Nevada 8 x 10 cm 244g $3000 This piece was from a calcite/stibnite vein, where the stibnite is crystallized all through the calcite When the calcite was partially etched away, there are these small, acicular stibnite crystals embedded in the calcite
Stibnite - This is a beautiful specimen of two common minerals together in an unsual combination The Stibnite shoots through a natural cavity in the Baryte cluster What you are seeing are the terminations of several Stibnite needles from divergent sprays originating at the base of the specimen That feature alone sets this specimen apart from ordinary Stibnite/Baryte groups
Jul 15, 2015· Right after the 2015 Sainte-Marie-aux-Mines Show, I spent a few days in Paris visiting some of the mineral museums there I took a bunch of photos of the displays and the minerals as notes to myself for an upcoming film series I'm planning but then thought I might as well share these "reference shots" with the rest of the mineral community

Antimony began to be produced from the Bau district in 1823 and since then more than 85, 000 t have been produced (Wilford, 1955) Output declined rapidly and there is no present-day production Stibnite accompanies gold around Bau and mercury at Gading The stibnite occurred as large granular masses and interlocking acicular crystals
Stibnite is the most important ore of the element antimony, and is an industrially important mineral It was used as a metallic cosmetic in ancient civilization Stibnite also forms some of the most exceptional crystal formations of all minerals, and large and well crystallized are highly sought after and appreciated by mineral collectors

Stibnite, sometimes called antimonite, is a sulfide mineral with the formula Sb 2 S 3This soft grey material crystallizes in an orthorhombic space group It is the most important source for the metalloid antimony The name is from the Greek στίβι stibi through the Latin stibium as the old name for the mineral and the element antimony
