A DRAMATIC Sweet Home Mine, V-shaped, LARGE CABINET combination specimen from the Sulfide Pocket of the Tetrahedrite Drift. Water-clear quartz needles are richly and aesthetically covered with lustrous hubnerite blades to 1.8 cm, mirror-bright, striated, brass-yellow pyritohedrons and a scattering of tetrahedrite - all on a matrix of milky quartz. This is CLASSIC Sweet Home association material, SELDOM available in this quality and size. Hubnerite is a particularly desirable and uncommon accessory species. All fine Sweet Home pieces are escalating in price, with the mine now closed.
