1 Only
This premium specimen from Preissac Mine displays multiple perfect rosettes of metallic molybdenite and some greenish-gray flaky mica (likely muscovite or biotite) surrounding parts of the specimen crystals on feldspar matrix. The rosettes measure approximately 15-23 mm in length.
Molybdenite is commonly found as foliated masses meaning the mineral forms folia or layers, like the mineral mica. It is metallic gray, has a greasy feel, and is very soft at only 1 on Mohs' hardness scale. Its softness, metallic luster and gray color led scientists to mistakenly believe it was a lead mineral. This specimen shows the typical hexagonal layered structure of the crystal.
Some believe molybdenite is linked to intuition, transformation, and problem-solving, helping with mental clarity and adaptability. It is sometimes associated with the third eye chakra, thought to enhance insight and creative thinking.
