Bright lustrous metallic crystals of arsenopyrite to 1.5 cm in size across the front of this matrix with muscovite, small colorless to slightly greenish fluorapatite crystals, and siderite. Slight micro-chipping present, this mainly confined to the back of the piece. I think in very good condition and quite choice for the species.
