TV64P1: Excellent sample whose penetrating angles had been molded by the faces of another preexisting mineral, probably Quartz. Those surfaces, then, aren’t real geometrical forms of Bismuth, but the small scales, echeloning and striations coating the surfaces correspond to crystalline growths of the mineral.
This specimen was photographed as a novelty at the 2009 Ste.
