Lustrous, steel-gray, cuboctahedral galena crystals to 2.7 cm form an elegant and fine specimen from recent finds at the Borieva Mine of Bulgaria. The 3-dimensional cluster of galena crystals is beautifully framed by two water-clear quartz points. Some of the galena crystal faces have a preferential coating of green chlorite. Very nearly pristine.
