About this specimen

Jiangxi, galena with dolomite at 2.9 cm; a miniature, supplied on the acrylic stand shown. A bright metallic galena crystal sits in the middle of the piece with a crust of small white dolomite rhombs grown up around and partly over it.

Galena's silver-grey metallic lustre and cubic cleavage make the species instantly recognisable; wash hands after handling.

Dolomite forms curved, saddle-shaped rhombs with a pearly lustre and is the usual companion of calcite and fluorite in Chinese carbonate deposits.

Jiangxi's tungsten mines, Xihuashan and Piaotang among them, are the classic source of wolframite, scheelite, baryte, fluorite and calcite specimens.

Dimensions place it in the miniature range, 2.9 × 2.2 × 1.8 cm (1.14 × 0.87 × 0.71 in). The specimen is otherwise sold in the condition shown.

Contains lead-bearing minerals: wash hands after handling and keep away from children and pets. Carbonate: never clean with acid or vinegar.

Each specimen is individually photographed and catalogued before it is listed.
