Description: Magnetite Locality: Cerro Huañaquino, Potosí Department, Bolivia (Locality at mindat.org) Size: 6 x 5.8 x 2.6 cm. A recent batch of magnetite specimens from Bolivia was exceptional in the size of the crystals, their sharpness and luster, and the absence of the typical corroded, oxidized crystals that can sometimes detract. These crystals measure to over 1 cm on edge, 1.5 cm tip-to-tip.
