Description/Interesting Notes:
An absolutely incredible example of pyrite from Colorado!!! When I first saw this specimen I literally thought I was looking at a crystal model!!!
This specimen consists of a razor-sharp, 100% complete, floater crystals of pyrite that has a handsome epitaxial coating of
chalcocite!!! The chalcocite coating gives the specimen a unique, dark, gun-metal like color that is quite striking in person!!! The
chalcocite coated crystals from this locality are often mislabelled as "Bravoite" in old collections!!! This is a killer specimen indeed!!!
The crystal has small sharply defined modifications with textbook-perfect form!!! 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!!! MORE AUCTIONS WILL BE ADDED SATURDAY NIGHT FOR A SPECIAL 5-DAY AUCTION, ENDING THURSDAY NOVEMBER 3rd!!!
