Item Description

An attractive small cabinet size specimen hosting a few sharp, lustrous, cubic Galena crystals with slight octahedral modifications studded with small overgrowths of Marcasite along with minor Sphalerite. The Tri-State District has produced some of the most prolific Galena specimens in the world, and the value of these specimens has steadily been on the rise in recent years. The largest crystal on this piece measures 3.2 cm. Great luster and form, and very attractive for the material.
