A beautiful combination of well-formed cubo-octahedral galena crystals with strong metallic luster, associated with fine-crystalline quartz

Borieva Mine, Madan, Bulgaria - a mine that has produced some of the finest galena specimens from the renowned Madan ore field.

This is my first truly high-quality galena specimen, acquired in 2021, the same year it was discovered in the mine.
