Pyrite

specimen number:
8632534

location:
Malvern clay pits, Perla, Hot Spring Co., Arkansas, USA

description:
Interesting locality example for the species with golden crystals of pyrite to 1.0 cm in size forming an attractive cluster little matrix. Very minimal chipping on what I consider the backside of the piece, overall I think in great condition. This piece would have been out of the ground for at least 40 years. It is just slightly crumbly typical of old pyrite specimens.
