Galena with Pyrite, Calcite

Unknown Owner
An interesting locality specimen, a cluster of crystallized brassy pyrite is posting lustrous crystals of galena to 0.7 cm in size, as well as minor calcite. This is crystallized completely all around and in great condition. The specimen appears to be a pyrite epimorph after a scalenohedral calcite crystal.
