Antimony is a metal that has been held in high esteem by many alchemists throughout time. In its natural state we find Antimony within its raw ore form as Stibnite. Entire alchemical manuscript have been written on antimony/Stibnite, its preparations and usages, the Triumphal Chariot of Antimony by Basil Valentine being one of them. John French in his book The Art of Distillation wrote of many preparations of Stibnite, including a water of Antimony that could purge the body of all toxins via the sweat. Joseph Du Chesne also wrote of many methods for procuring medicines of Antimony in his Treatise on Metallic Medicine. The list goes on, and any student of alchemy will be sure to run into references of Stibnite or Antimony during their studies, especially when research of metallic alchemy or the production of the Philosophers Stone are undertaken.
