This is an excellent, two-sided, cabinet example of jamesonite, for which Zacatecas, Mexico is famous. The sculptural piece consists solidly of a showy, jackstraw cluster of lustrous to matte-finish jamesonite blades to 2.7 cm. One side holds a 1.3 cm pod of calcite rhombs and pyrite crystals as a nice accent. The crystals are robust on this piece. This fine piece, from the Dave Stoudt Collection, comes from the much less well-known Noria Mine of Zacatecas.
