Item Description

During his years in Poland, collector Dave Stoudt sought out and purchased an array of Polish specimens little seen on the market here in the States. This incredible piece looks like a psychedelic, iridescent snail shell! It is a thin crust of iridescent, botryoidal marcasite peppered with tiny, iridescent bornite crystals. Rare and absolutely striking combination material from this locale. Purchased by Dave in Warsaw in August, 1998.
