Item Description

Wow! This striking, large undulating specimen scintillates with splendent, sharp, metallic-gray, spinel-twinned galena crystals and jet-black sphalerite crystals. Very nearly pristine, with only trivial bruising to a few sphalerites in the right-center of the piece. Outstanding large combination sulfide material from the famous mines at Madan, that displays well without aid. 10.1 pounds or 4.6 kilos. MUCH BETTER IN PERSON!!
