Pyrrhotite (classic) Gene Meieran Coll.

Item Description

Santa Eulalia pyrrhotites are a Mexican classic. This is an excellent, massive, blocky, hexagonal crystal with typical layering and classic brassy luster. The sidecar pyrrhotites and a bit of galena on one side and the lightly iridescent, small chalcopyrite crystals on both sides are a nifty accent. A showy and classic, two-sided crystal, with only very trivial edgewear and modest contacting, mostly on one side on one end. Hard-to-fine material in this quality from the 1960s or 70s. Ex Gene Meieran Sulfide Collection.
