Item Description

A bright, brass-yellow, complex Pyrite cuboctahedron with pyritohedral modifications from the Muzo Mine, renowned for some of the best Emeralds in the world. This is certainly one of the best crystallized matrix examples of Pyrite that I've seen from this mine. They're not common and if you're a sulfide collector, or simply a Pyrite collector, you should have one of these in your collection.
