Collection: Stibnite
Stibnite – A striking sulfide mineral, stibnite is known for its metallic silver-gray color and brilliant metallic luster. It commonly forms long, slender, and striated prismatic crystals that can cluster into dramatic, radiating sprays. Stibnite is prized by collectors for its sharp crystal edges, reflective surfaces, and aesthetic crystal formations. Its softness and brittle nature mean it should be handled with care. Found in hydrothermal veins, stibnite often occurs alongside quartz, calcite, and other sulfide minerals.
