Item Description

Pyrites from Navajun are one of the most easily recognizeable and abundant display specimens in the world. They are highly attractive, and arguably the finest crystallized representations of the species, especially from the standpoint of quantity of specimens that have been produced from this region. This piece features a pair of razor-sharp, highly lustrous, metallic pale golden color cubes of Pyrite integrown as is often the case from this area. This locality is mined almost exclusively for its Pyrite crystals, which are world famous and very well known among collectors. If you don't have a good Navajun Pyrite in your collection, and you've always wanted a nice miniature, here's your chance.
