Item Description
These beautiful, lustrous pyrite floater "suns" formed between an ancient bed of shale and clay near Sparta, Illinois. This one, unusually, is only partially covered with pyrite, giving a most striking appearance!. The radial appearance of the pyrite is very interesting and the pyrite has a flashy, chatoyant shimmer. Highly representative of this unusual occurrence. MUCH BETTER IN PERSON.
