There were only a few specimens from this amazing find that appeared at Tucson - no clue whether that was all there will ever be or not. What you have is a BIG cluster of sharp rhombs of calcite (to 8 cm tip-to-tip!), with this gorgeous sparkly pyrite of gold, green and copper tones, decorating the crystal faces. I bought every decent one I saw at the show, and that amounted to exactly six. These are very unusual specimens, I have not seen their like before from anywhere, and there is no telling if any more will turn up. 16.7 x 11.5 x 10.8cm
