Galena
This old, mid-1900s galena crystal weighs over 7 pounds. It shows epitaxial growth (which means oriented growth of a later crystal generation upon the first). Remarkably, this huge crystal is complete, if asymmetric, all around. This seems to have fallen off in situ and then partially re-grown while in the pocket, making for crystallization faces all around. Ex. Harold Urish Collection.
