Summary

Description
English: Magnetite
Locality: Cerro Huañaquino, Potosí Department, Bolivia (Locality at mindat.org)
Size: 6.3 x 5.4 x 2.2 cm.
Typically the Magnetite specimens from this locality are closely grown together, and this is a good example of said material. This is easily one of the showiest and well preserved Magnetite specimens that has come out of Bolivia. The piece has excellent quality, good size, razor sharp, lustrous, black, "Alpine-type" octahedra on matrix. The largest Magnetite crystal measures 1.1 cm. across, which is good size for the locality. This is one of the better quality specimens of this material that I’ve seen from this locality and virtually every crystal is undamaged. Keep in mind, that there are no other localities producing Magnetites of this quality today, and there are few localities in the world that have ever produced Magnetite like this. Though this species is well known to collectors, it is remarkably difficult to obtain such well crystallized, highly displayable cabinet-sized specimens as this one. Ex. Brian Kosnar Collection.
