Item Description

Dal'negorsk sulfide combination specimens are a worldwide classic and this is a fine and aesthetic example. Very sharp, cuboctahedral galena crystals to 3.2 cm have striking skeletal/hoppered features and very nifty light blue-gray iridescence. Splendent, jet-black sphalerites with fabulous triangular faces, large golden-brassy, iridescent, etched chalcopyrite crystals to 4.0 cm and rich scattered clusters of quartz points make for an excellent and showy combination specimen, that looks great from either side. In great shape overall. Valued at $900-1000.
