Clearly an old time specimen, judging from the beautiful Wilh. Anderberg (Stockholm) label which accompanies it, silver, lead-grey Tennantite crystals richly coat the upper surface of a green stained, chloritic Quartz veinstone from the St. Just area of southern Cornwall. the Tennantite forms characteristic crystals to a few millimetres across, forming a densely packed coverage.
