Arsenopyrite, Muscovite & Fluorite ex Obodda

Item Description

A striking, stair-stepped, en-echelon cluster of sharply terminated, metallic brassy-silver colored arsenopyrite crystals have some nifty jagged, "cocks comb" edges. The pristine crystals are up to 3.2 cm across and are aesthetically set in the matrix of pearlescent muscovite books. A gem, 8 mm, color-zoned fluorite cube, with a colorless interior and nifty purple edge phantoms, is hiddden behind the arsenopyrites and is a fine accent. Classic and excellent combination material from the famous Yaogangxian Mine. Seldom on the market today. Ex Herb Obodda dealer stock and valued by Herb at $300, more than 5 years ago.
