Galena with Sphalerite
specimen number:
2024506
location:
Elmwood Mine, Smith Co., Tennessee, USA
description:
Choice complex cubic galena crystal measuring 2.0 cm on a diagonal set up beautifully from a crystallized black sphalerite matrix. Minor chipping to the sphalerite on what I call the backside of the piece, this still shows nicely all around and I think in good condition. Nice example for the species from this locality collected in the 1990s. Measures 3.5 x 2.5 x 2.0 cm. Shipping weight: 0.07 pounds. Ex Chris and Agatha Galas collection.
Size: 3.5 x 2.5 x 2.0 cm (miniature)
