A super showy and cute piece of ultra-sparkly, silvery pyrite microcrystals coating a sharp, 2.6 cm calcite rhomb jauntily set on a wedge of banded calcite. A fine Australian piece from the Marty Zinn Collection #2169. MUCH BETTER in person. Rare material from a small find, of which we have seen only a few specimens over the years.
