Summary

Description
English: Tellurite
Locality: Moctezuma Mine (Bambolla Mine), Moctezuma, Municipio de Moctezuma, Sonora, Mexico (Locality at mindat.org)
Size: 4.1 x 4.0 x 3.7 cm.
One of the surprises of 2007 for rarities was the reworking of the famous old Bambolla mine in the Moctezuma tellurium complex for specimens, by several European-led collecting teams. Many specimens were then sold at Munich 2008 and this year in Tucson. This is a very rich specimen with a huge Tellurite crystal measuring 1.2 cm in size. Several other crystals to several millimeters in size line the quartz vug which this crystal projects into. This is almost unheard of from previous finds. Only microcrystals are readily available to the collector (from workings 40-50 years ago). Small yellow patches of micro-poughite and paratellurite are also present, it appears (but not confirmed by analysis).
