Single black Alabandite crystal showing good crystal faces. Alabandite reaches is largest, best crystals at Merelani. Prior to this find, a 3cm Alabandite crystal would be mind blowing, now it just accepted as yet another world's best for the Merelani mines. There is attached Diopside, Graphite, and other minerals to add interest if the large single Alabandite wasn't enough. Website price was $250.
