FEATURED ITEM $100 Min Bid - cin1 CINNABAR on DOLOMITE, Hunan Province, China, 6 x 4.5 x 2.5 cm | |
Excellent and choice Cinnabar specimen with 7 ruby red Cinnabar crystals with white Dolomite rhombs. Backside is covered with Dolomite rhombic crystals. Note: Fine Cinnabar specimens should be stored in the dark. Light and heat causes the surface of the Cinnabars to develop a silver film of mercury. This is why very few Cinnabar specimens have the ruby red crystals. This silvery film is not as desirable as the ruby red crystals. |
