Item Description

Choice combination miniature from a small find of the 1980s showcasing, translucent, gemmy light green modified cubic Fluorite crystals on a bed of sparkling, metallic golden Pyrite pyritohedrons and well defined silvery black, Sphalerite crystals. The Fluorite cubes up to 5 mm have beveled edges and are nicely isolated across the display face. The piece is in great condition with no damage that I can find. An all around clean miniature highlighted by juicy millimeter sized Fluorites and highly striated Pyrites. A unique style, we rarely see for sale. Huanzala is an amazing locality!
