Item Description

Lustrous, brassy, rosettes of intergrown pyrite crystals are aesthetically and richly scattered on the quartz crystal matrix on this excellent and very showy two-sided specimen from recent finds at the Fengjiashan Mine, China. This is an unusual Chinese pyrite form, and is really nifty. Nearly pristine and a near floater, with only couple of small points of attachment.
