Item Description
A really interesting, rich and unusual 360-degree small cabinet from the famous mines at Naica. The impressive, mounded ore specimen hosts: sparkly metallic-gray microcrystallized Galena after Chalcopyrite crystals; scattered mirror-bright, brassy, striated Pyritohedrons, to 1.0 cm; tiny golden Chalcopyrite crystals; and contrasting patches of white calcite rhombohedrons. Old-time material, as the Lidstrom's attribution on the Trimingham label dates the piece to the 1970s. A choice and very showy combination ore specimen from the famous locale.
