Description
Zinkenite is composed of lead sulfide and antimony, and here we see fine sheaf-like crystals on top of massive zinkenite. The crystals are intact and brilliant. They are associated with beautiful, bright-brown siderite rhombohedrons. This sample comes from the Saint-Pons ravines, near Barcelonnette, in the Alpes-de-Haute-Provence region.
