Item Description

The Eagle mine is probably best known for its pyritohedral Pyrite specimens. This cluster is a great display piece of Eagle mine Pyrite showing classic striated pyritohedra with sharp, lustrous faces. The largest crystal measurs 6 mm across, and the piece is in decent shape overall. A nice representative miniature piece of this well known material from this now defunct locality. From the collection of Allen Heyl (Aheylite).
