Item Description

A beautiful crystal group of sharp, lustrous, pale golden color octahedral crystals of Pyrite from one of the most classic of Peruvian localities. The piece is not 100% perfect, as there are a few minor nicks, but it's still a beautiful and good quality display specimen of this well known material. The largest crystal measures 1.8 cm across. Keep in mind that octahedral Pyrite is not terribly common in nature, and some of the finest pieces of this particular habit of Pyrite have come from the famous Huanzala Mine.
