Item Description
A wonderful Pyrite specimen from the lesser known Racracancha mine in Peru. It features some beautifully sharp, lustrous, striated well-formed cubic crystals with accenting Quartz crystals. The cubes actually have tiny octahedral and pyritohedral modifications on the corners and slight pyrithedral modifications on edges. The largest cube measures 3.5 cm on edge. Very little damage, and quite showy and good quality overall. You don't see many pieces from this mine on the market, and if you collect Pyrite, sulfides or Peruvian minerals, this one is worth picking up for your collection.
