Item Description

When it comes to cubic Pyrite, the specimens from Navajun might be most famous and iconic examples of the species ever found. These specimens are not only highly attractive, but they make a case as arguably the finest crystallized representations of the species hands down. This piece features a 2.2 cm razor-sharp, brilliantly lustrous, soft metallic golden color cube of Pyrite aesthetically flaring off matrix. The only roughness I can see is a few tiny Wilbers, but it's nothing compared to the absolute crystal perfection. This locality is mined almost exclusively for its Pyrite crystals, which are world famous and well known among collectors.
