A CLASSIC and aesthetic, stacked thumbnail cluster of lustrous, gray acanthite cubes from the famous Rayas Mine at Guanajuato, Mexico. The largest cubes perched at the top and the hoppered crystals are a very nice effect. Specimens like this are why the Rayas Mine is often considered as producing some of the worlds finest acanthites. The combination of sharp crystal form and excellent lustre are the reasons. Ex.

Un bel empilement (de la taille d'un pouce) CLASSIQUE de dés gris brillants d'acanthite de la célèbre mine de Rayas à Guanajuato, au Mexique. Le plus gros dés perchés au sommet et les cristaux incrustés sont d'un très bel effet. De tels spécimens expliquent pourquoi la mine de Rayas est souvent considérée comme produisant certains des plus beaux cristaux d'acanthite au monde. La combinaison d'un forme aigüe des cristaux et d'une excellente brillance en est la raison. De la collection Dick Jones.
