This specimen is simply breathtakingly aesthetic. The specimen consists of a single fine transparent quartz with top notch luster sitting on matrix. The quartz is draped with delicate bladed orange/tan siderite which is overlain with bright gold pyrite. The base of the specimen consists of large iridescent euhedral arsenopyrites that sit on a bed of mica. The overall affect is a beautiful contrast between opposites of color, luster, and geometric form. A very striking example from this world famous locality. Please note the quartz has a micro-chip on the termination.
