A glistening, brilliantly lustrous plate of really good quartz, serves as matrix for a jackstraw cluster of elongated brown pyromorphite crystals on this rare locality piece. I had personally never even seen any pyro from this mine, and here is not only a rich cluster (6 cm across), but on beautiful quartz matrix?! It is an oldtime specimen from the well known collection of John Marshall.
