Galena

What a beautiful Eastern European galena this is! For one thing, the luster is just fantastic, what I like to call "mirror-metallic." But just as impressive is the architectural, stepped structure. Some of these crystals even have very thin, platy tiers on their faces that add to the interest. Minor quartz and pyrite associations. Nice!
