A choice small miniature group of metallic silver-grey Galena crystals occurring in modified forms of the octahedral habit from Str'bro (Mies)in the Plzen Region of the Czech Republic. The crystals are reasonably equant, that is, of equal length in each dimension, with the largest of the four intergrown crystals measuring approximately 2 x 2 x 2 cm. Surface growth patterns on the prism faces include equilateral triangular forms and mottled micro-dendrites. A rather pleasing Galena from Str'bro.
