Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Nagyágite
Locality: Sacarîmb (Sãcãrâmb; Szekerembe; Nagyág), Hunedoara County, Romania (Locality at mindat.org)
Size: 4.1 x 3.7 x 2.3 cm.
Nagyagite is one of those old European rarities that are both mineralogically and historically interesting. This is the richest, most robust cluster of crystals of this species that I have encountered, very different from the usual styles: either short robust crystals spaced out on matrix as above; or elegantly gracile and fragile, etched, thin crystals in clusters. Instead, here we have a solid 3x3x2 cm mass completely composed of intergrown, robust crystals up to 4 mm in size. It is important to note that these are freestanding (unetched from enclosing calcite) crystals, from its type locality; and that this has not been etched out from calcite as with so many nagyagite specimens, as that preparation method changes the natural patina on the surface of the crystals. The cluster is perched on a matrix composed of pale pink rhodochrosite. Ex. Dr. Werner Paar Collection.
