description:
Flattened rhombohedral black crystals of calcite to 1.5 cm in size nice over the top of an 8.0 x 5.5 x 3.0 cm matrix. Black color due to inclusions of jamesonite, there is jamesonite present on the outside matrix as well. The matrix consists mainly of pyrite and sphalerite. Very minimal micro-chipping present, I think this in excellent condition. Classic example for this locality. Shipping weight: 0.48 pounds. Ex Renaud Vochten collection.
