A big, fat, single crystal, complete all around, beautifully outlined in purple, with tiny pyrites embedded in the surface. The crystal is wrapped around sphalerite in back. This came from a dealer who once had, by their own count, 1300 Elmwood specimens, and now has only a handful, since the closing of the mine; this stuff is just disappearing! 5.2 x 4.6 x 4.3 cm
