Superb specimen of lustrous and shiny Galena from the famous Madan ore field, Bulgaria. The Galena crystals are so mirror lustrous and light reflective that it is difficult to look them on a strong light. The crystals have very sharp geometry and marvelous penetration twinning. Some small spiky Quartzes and Sphalerite are present too. It displays attractively on both sides. In very good condition – some small nicks and base contacts. On acrylic base.

Marvelous!
