Ludlamite with Siderite on Pyrite black I acquired this piece in

I acquired this piece in early 2009

The pieces from Bolivia are reminiscent of the classic and highly sought after Zambian specimens

as is the case with the majority of Ferberites from Tasna

Ludlamite with Siderite on Pyrite black I acquired this piece inAn attractive Ludlamite specimen from the famous mine at Haununi. This mine is actually the LARGEST Cassiterite deposit in the world but is best known for its phosphate species. There are truly about 5 localities in the world that produce fine crystallized Ludlamite specimens, and ALL of them, except for Huanuni and now defunct. This piece features several layered crystal groups of pleasing green Ludlamite with good luster, sharpness and translucency
