Item Description

Very cute and bright Quartz-Pyrite thumbnail originating from the Homestake Gold Mine in Lead, South Dakota. Rarely do you see pieces from this locality, but it has been a source of specimens from the late stage Quartz veins that transect the gold mineralization until its closure in 2000. This piece has two larger, Pyrite-Ankerite included, water-clear Quartz crystals and several smaller Quartz crystals that comprise this sweet thumbnail cluster. There are two little Quartz-Ankerite composed of tiny crystals on the outside of the crystals as well. Tom Campbell collection (he lived in S. Dakota)
