2.3" Aesthetic Sulfur Crystal Cluster - Italy

Aesthetic Sulfur Crystal Cluster - Italy #240644

This is a 2.3" wide, top-quality sulfur crystal cluster collected from the Cianciana Mine in Sicilia, Italy. The crystals have a ridiculously vibrant color and are in a solid habit instead of as a powdery coating typical in sulfur deposits. This specimen is mounted with mineral tack within the included acrylic perky display case.

The chemical composition of this vibrant mineral is S8, eight sulfur atoms bonded together to form a sulfur molecule. The crystal structures are typically tabular or blocky dipyramids that form in sedimentary rock.

One note on handling: sulfur crystals can crack when exposed to rapid changes in temperature.
