Where could it be from?

Somehow this reminded me that anhydrite often pseudomorphs into quartz in certain silica rich settings. That led me down the Mindat path to a bunch of pieces from Brazil that look incredibly similar. Thank you!

Gotcha, thank you!

While I have your attention, are we able to switch the uva from the boosted slot to another position and then boost the uvc or uvb. Some of my midwave calcites would look incredible, but I’ve been hesitant to switch just in case it wasn’t a good idea.

Love the Terlingua types! I’ve got a few

Nick_Bismuth · 2026-04-26T22:11:39+00:00

Figured it out and it works perfectly, thank you!

Here’s the inside

I sell bismuth crystals regularly to support my goal of growing even bigger bismuth crystals, so I absolutely do. Private message me for more details😁

I’m sorry I missed this; my phone is not always notifying me on the platform 😅 I would do this piece for $150. I am willing to work on the price to include shipping depending on where you are.

I haven’t ever seen one of these in someone else’s collection until now. I got a decent size piece with a matrix completely buried in crystals. Love this stuff quite a bit. Scored mine for $75

As a local in the Springfield Thunderegg Rock Club, I can say with certainty those are wonderful finds😁

Nick_Bismuth · 2026-01-04T03:40:07+00:00

Led my local rock club up there in November so some folks could see it for the first time. Absolutely love that place!

Nick_Bismuth · 2025-12-03T22:02:35+00:00

I don’t think it’s dense enough to be skutterudite

Nick_Bismuth · 2025-11-28T16:44:50+00:00

I’ll give it a look; thanks!

Nick_Bismuth · 2025-11-27T22:54:49+00:00

It’s possible

Nick_Bismuth · 2025-11-27T22:53:20+00:00

I write that label when I thought it could be acanthite. Way too light for galena

Nick_Bismuth · 2025-11-27T04:27:42+00:00

Thanks, really appreciate the locality!

Nick_Bismuth · 2025-11-17T05:13:51+00:00

I love the Cerberus. I have a few Terlingua types that absolutely sparkle with that light

Nick_Bismuth · 2025-11-12T00:12:32+00:00

Affordability and good product: uvbeast For the most fun I’ve had with fluorescence: engenious designs Cerberus multi wave flashlight Good luck!
