Item Description

During his years in Poland, collector Dave Stoudt sought out and obtained an array of Polish specimens little seen on the market here in the States. Iridescent brass-yellow, marcasite botryoids comprise this striking piece. A few tiny, melted-look galena octahedrons also rest on the layered sphalerite ore. Very colorful and impressive sulfide material. Obtained by Dave in Warsaw in June, 1998.
