1.0" Massive Yellow Sulfur Crystal - Italy
This is a 1.0" wide sulfur crystal, collected from the Cianciana Mine in Sicilia, Italy. It has a ridiculously vibrant color in a solid habit instead of a powdery coating typical to sulfur deposits. This specimen has been mounted to a clear acrylic display stand with mineral tack for a clean, aesthetic presentation.
The chemical composition of this vibrant mineral is S8, eight sulfur atoms bonded together to form a sulfur molecule. The crystal structures are typically tabular or blocky dipyramids that form in sedimentary rock.
One note on handling: sulfur crystals can crack when exposed to rapid changes in temperature.
