A fantastic specimen from a seldom represented locale. This brilliant pyrite crystal is sharply cubic and has a very unique patina that is quite brassy and slightly iridescent! There are attractive striations in the crystal faces, which become more and more fascinating the closer one looks. This specimen consists of a group of slightly elongated cubic crystals which gives it a very unique and aesthetic form, reminiscent of a modern sculpture perhaps.
