Summary[edit]

Description
English: Siderite, Pyrite, Stannite
Locality: Siete Suyos mine, Atocha-Quechisla District, Sud Chichas Province, Potosí Department, Bolivia (Locality at mindat.org)
Size: 4.6 x 4.4 x 2.8 cm.
The Siete Suyos mine (Seven Servants mine) is sometimes considered to be part of the Animas mine, and it is often difficult to know where specimens are from because several mines in the area share the same vein system. I directly obtained this specimen from the miner who collected it, so I know for certain where it came from. This piece features several excellent, sharp, gemmy, greenish-brown crystals of Siderite measuring up to 0.8 cm which are sitting upon unusual crystals of lustrous Pyrite (which are actually pseudomorphs after Siderite) which are associated with minor grey crystals of the rare sulfide, Stannite. For Siderite, the quality is impressive for Bolivia, as I rarely have seen such sharp and gemmy crystals from any Bolivian locality. So far, this find was very limited.
