A TOP QUALITY piece from a classic mine that is now closed for good, with the supply of specimens having already dried up on the market. These are wonderful ZONED transparent purple cubes to 2 cm on edge, piled attractively on top of a dome of sparkling deep red sphalerite, with two large, euhedral sphalerite crystals right below the fluorites. The crystals are pristine; the back of the specimen is a natural flat contact face. 6.9 x 6.6 x 4.2 cm
