Killer Sphalerite octahedron with Galena combo specimen. Big 31mm, black Sphalerites octahedron dominates the piece. It is perfect, sharp, very well shaped and has strong luster and nice striations. Sphalerite has some gemmy areas. Skeletal Galena cubes add a nice contrast. Small Quartzes and Chalcopyrite are seen too. Beautiful display from all sides – complete floater. In excellent condition – some small nicks.

Marvelous!
