Large Double-Terminated Cinnabar Twin on Dolomite from Chatian Mine, Xiangxi, Hunan, China

A sharp 1.9cm doubly-terminated cinnabar twin is surrounded by druse of dolomite crystals.

Cinnabar crystals that are larger than 1.5cm across are considered very very big and rare, and most of these large crystals are too badly damaged to become collectable specimens. The crystal on this specimen, however, is not only in excellent condition, but also gemmy enough to reveal its beautiful red color without the help of strong backlighting.
