description:
Very attractive brassy to bluish purple iridescent crystals of chalcopyrite averaging 0.3 cm in size scattered richly over the top of a 13.5 x 10.5 x 7.5 cm breccia matrix. This matrix is almost completely covered on all sides by sparkling small white dolomite crystals. Galena crystals to 1.5 cm are present on the backside. Actually this can show very nicely all around, with the chalcopyrite accenting one side and the galena accenting the other. This sits up for display by itself perfectly and is in excellent condition.
