LARGE ROCK CRYSTAL SPECIMEN WITH CHALCOPYRITE & GALENA
An exceptionally large and versatile collector's specimen with numerous naturally grown rock crystals and high-contrast metallic accessory minerals.
Quartz crystals of varying sizes, some strongly developed, are distributed across the entire specimen. Interspersed are dark to silver-gray ore minerals, as well as recurring areas of intensely metallic gold chalcopyrite.
The strong contrast between the bright rock crystals, the dark metallic areas, and the small gold-colored accents is particularly appealing. From almost every angle, new crystals, intergrowths, and mineral areas can be discovered.
With its size of approximately 15 cm, the specimen has a very significant presence and is ideally suited as a larger display piece for a mineral collection or cabinet.
According to the original accompanying label, the specimen consists of rock crystal with chalcopyrite (gold-colored) and galena (gray).
