Item Description
The Eagle Mine was a major zinc producer years ago, but it was also the source of some of the best and most well-known Pyrites from any Colorado ore body. This piece is a classic representative example featuring dozens of brilliant, sharp, striated golden metallic crystals measuring up to 6 mm, sitting on black Sphalerite matrix. The front/display side of the piece is loaded with crystals, and the large percentage of them are undamaged as far as I can see with the naked eye. A showy and fine quality piece of these lovely Pyrites from this famous mine.
