Pyrite with Quartz
specimen number:
3332689
location:
Spruce Claim, King Co., Washington, USA
description:
A wonderful large example from this classic locality with striated bright cubic crystals of pyrite, the largest grouping 8.0 cm on edge, across the top of this matrix with gemmy colorless quartz crystals to 3.5 cm in len This is in great condition considering the size of this piece and number of crystals present, I can only find very minimal micro-chipping along the lower right edge.
