An excellent and showy ball-like cluster of intergrown, lustrous, brass-yellow pyrite cubes on a bit of matrix from the famous N'Chwaning II Mine of South Africa. Very nearly pristine, with only a small amount of contacting, which is out of sight, as you can see. EXTREMELY RARE and super quality for this species and locality.
