This piece is extremely sculptural with 2cm lustrous, black tetrahedrites jutting out of a valley of quartz crystals and green malachite along with minor lilac fluorite and rhodochrosite. From the single pocket of malachite found at this mine and considered quite a rarity! I bought the best of them, about 6 months ago, and this is one from that lot. very IMPORTANT locality specimen! 7.5 x 3.3 x 3 cm
