Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Cervantite
Locality: Huitzuco de los Figueroa (Huitzuco), Municipio de Huitzuco, Guerrero, Mexico
Size: 5.4 cm x 4.8 cm x 4.0 cm
Cervantite, an uncommon antimony oxide, is rare from the numerous Mexican localities listed by MINDAT. It is extremely rare from the two obscure mines MINDAT lists for Huitzuco in Guerrero State. This is a sculptural solid specimen of light brown cervantite pseudomorphing diverging jackstraw sprays of stibnite blades. The blades reach over 3.5 cm on this fine and showy rarity. Ex Kay Robertson Collection # 267. Old material, from the late 1940s or early 1950s with the low collection number. She acquired this piece from the George Burnham private collection. George made his first collecting trip to Mexico in 1947. See his biography in the Mineralogical Record Biographical Archive at: http://www.minrec.org/labels.asp?colid=291. Kay is a prominent California collector, who specialized in European classics (see the article in the March-April, 2007 Mineralogical Record).
