Splendid morphology for this Chalcopyrite, Sphalerite combo specimen. Black Sphalerite tetrahedrons grow atop small Quartz crystals base. Well isolated yellow Chalcopyrite epitaxial crystals decorate the Sphalerite making excellent formations of mutual intergrowth and penetration – really amazing. Small Pyrite cubes grow on the Chalcopyrite. Minor Galena cubes are seen too. The Quartz crystals have light green hue.  Beautiful display specimen with excellent focal point. In good condition – some small nicks and contacts. On acrylic base.

Aesthetic specimen!
