Pyrite with Quartz, Scheelite
specimen number:
2051279
location:
Fengjiashan Mine, Daye Co., Hubei, China
description:
Incredibly bright and lustrous sharp brassy cubic pyrite crystals to 4.0 cm on a diagonal scattered aesthetically over the top of this 14.0 x 7.5 x 7.0 cm matrix covered by small pyrite crystals and minor quartz. Small scheelite crystals are present as well. This sits beautifully by itself for display and shows well all around. Minimal chipping present as seen, this is not terribly atypical of these pyrite specimens from this locality. I think this one in very fine condition. Shipping weight: 2.99 pounds. Ex Phil Martin collection.
Size: 14.0 x 7.5 x 7.0 cm (cabinet)
