Galena with Marcasite
specimen number:
7991715
location:
West Fork mine, Viburnum Trend, Reynolds Co., Missouri, USA
description:
Octahedral crystals of galena measuring to just under 2.0 cm in size scattered nicely across botryoidal golden crystallized marcasite. The galena crystals exhibit cubic modifications. This is in good condition, the specimen would have been collected in the very early 1990s. The marcasite is currently just very slightly decomposing, like all of these will, I think this still quite stable for the time being.
Size: 6.0 x 6.0 x 6.0 cm (small-cabinet)
