This old specimen of dramatically-isolated tennantite crystals came out of collection of the well-known A.E. Seaman Mineralogical museum. Measuring to one centimeter, the tennantites are on and embedded in a layer of stark white crystalline quartz that has pseudomorphed Baryte. The back of the specimen is a sort of mixed druse of micro-tennantite and quartz.
