Galena (Spinel Twins)

Item Description

A wonderful small cabinet display specimen featuring sharp, metallic, silvery colored "Spinel-Law" twins of Galena free of matrix. The piece has a lovely patina and displays well from a few angles. Great quality all the way around, and better in person than the photos indicate! The largest Galena measures 2.3 cm. These specimens might be plentiful on the market now, and because they're common species, they don't get the respect they deserve for being such fine quality examples of their respective species, reminiscent of Indian zeolites. Very very little damage, and showy!
