An extremely unique and distinctive pyrite specimen, from the pretty much unheard of locality (for minerals) of Baffin Island. Complex crystals like this came out of the locale through several collectors who worked there as mining engineers and geologists, by helicopter transport, in the late 1980s and early 90s.
