Description: | [Johan Georgen Stadt [=Johanngeorgenstadt], Saxony], [Germany] unknown Lovely specimen - good condition, with nice unfaded old labels. Locality information is from one of William Hunter's mineral bills from Jacob Forster. The undated bill (from between 1770 and 1783) listing "German Ores, Minerals etc" gives "8. solid Red Silver Ore, crystallized in quartz and Horn Stone from Johan-Georgen Stadt, Saxony £3 3s 0d". Hannay (1877) seemed unaware of this information, and gave "Freiberg is probably the source of this mineral". | License: | http://www.hmag.gla.ac.uk/spirit/rights/ | Publisher: | Hunterian Museum and Art Gallery, University of Glasgow | Rights holder: | Hunterian Museum and Art Gallery, University of Glasgow | Subjects: | SULPHOSALT : ELEMENT : MINERAL : ORIGINAL BEQUEST : | Source: | Hunterian Museum | Creator: | Hunterian Museum and Art Gallery, University of Glasgow | Identifier: | http://www.huntsearch.gla.ac.uk/cgi-bin/... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
