Sphalerite

Unknown Owner
The Shuikoushan Mine has been producing gorgeous honey-yellow to red sphalerite specimens for the last 25 years or so, but they have become harder to come by. This lovely piece features large deep red-organge lustrous sphalerite crystals that contrast nicely with the druzy quartz coated matrix.
