Pyrrhotite with Galena
specimen number:
1503839
location:
Santa Eulalia District, Chihuahua, Mexico
description:
Excellent crystals of sharply formed pyrrhotite to 3.0 cm in size covering this 14.5 x 7.6 x 3.5 cm matrix. Small crystals of galena and calcite scattered throughout. In very good condition and sits nicely by itself for display. Previous data label gives the locality for this in Brazil, though I have not seen pyrrhotite such as this from Brazil. I believe this to be from Mexico. Shipping weight: 1.99 pounds. Ex Renaud Vochten collection.
