Beautiful specimen of bedazzling Galena cubes with Sphalerite tetrahedrons, Quartz and Calcite from the famous Madan ore field, Bulgaria. It displays razor sharp Galena cubic crystals to 28mm. They are strongly mirror lustrous and strongly light reflective. On the faces are seen gas bubble deformations. Black Sphalerite tetrahedrons with good luster grow among the Galena. They are chunky, sharp and with cool striations. Spiky Quartz crystals and granular Calcite are seen too. It shows attractively all over 360 degree. In very good condition – some minor damages. On acrylic base.

Fantastic!
