Item Description

Brilliant, brassy, sharply microcrystalline pyrite crystals form a fantastic mounded, globular/botryoidal, amoeba-like specimen from a most obscure, aptly called locality - the Brass Balls Claim in Eagle County, Colorado. The bit of underlying attached matrix adds character to this striking, pristine, 360-degree small cabinet. VERY RARE, perhaps unique, Colorado pyrite as MINDAT does not list a Brass Balls Claim pyrite locality for Eagle County. Ex Charles Trantham and Tim Sherburn Collections. A MUST for the species or Colorado collector.
