Pyrite pseudomorph after Pyrhottite with Calcite

Santa Eulalia District, Mun. de Aquiles Serdan, Chihuahua, Mexico

9.1cm x 8cm x 4.6cm

Ex. A. E. Seaman Mineral Museum #LTH-005


Description/Interesting Notes:

A magnificent example of pyrite after pyrhottite from Mexico!!! This specimen consists of a group of intergrown crystals of pyrhottite that have been completely replaced by bright, golden pyrite crystals!!! The pseudomorphic pyrite crystals exhibit highly complex surface features that are quite intruiging under close inspection!!! The pseudomorphs retain sharp crystal form and have complete terminations!!! Although the crystals show what appear to be cracks, these are actually filled with crystals upon close inspection - the specimen is solid, stable, and in fantastic condition all around!!! There are some complexly etched, yet highly lustrous crystals of calcite in association as well!!! There is also a small amount of galena in minor association as well!!! This specimen is way, WAY better than the pics show!!! This is a killer example of these rare and attractive pseudomorphs from Mexico!!! Ex. A.E. Seaman Mineral Museum!!! The pics hardly do it justice!!! Must be seen in person to be fully appreciated!!! Good luck and be sure to check out my other exciting mineral auctions on ebay!!! STAY TUNED!!!
