Item Description

Well-crystallized pyrite specimens are very uncommon from the famous mines at Naica. This very fine and showy mounded combination specimen features mirror-bright, brass-yellow cubes to 1.3 cm jauntily clustered on a bed of frosted quartz points to 2.8 cm. Excellent, older combination material from this noted locale from the Harold Urish Collection.
