Item Description

A STRIKING, lustrous, 5-sided, tapering, GOLDEN pyrrhotite crystal from the famous Santa Eulalia District of Mexico. I have seen lots of Santa Eulalia pyrrhotites, but NEVER one in this golden color. Old material from the 1960s or 70s. Ex Consie Prince Collection. A CLASSIC crystal from a CLASSIC locale. It looks like a golden, columnar basalt column! Valued $250
