I think this an outstanding cabinet display piece for the species from this locality. Rounded metallic crystals of stannite measuring to 1.8 cm in size are scattered throughout this crystallized chalcopyrite matrix with galena, arsenopyrite, and siderite. This is in good condition. Good examples of the species from this famous locality are rarely seen available on the mineral market today. Collected in 2004.
