Neat combination specimen showing a grouping of colorless partly gemmy lustrous tabular barite crystals 4.0 cm in length set the top a ridge of crystallized bright golden pyrite with lustrous black sphalerite in many needlelike crystals of quartz to 1.0 cm in length. Very minimal micro-chipping is present, this extremely sparse though in the piece I think is in very fine condition.
