Barite with Marcasite

Unknown Owner
Beautiful blue lustrous translucent bladed crystals of barite measuring to 5.5 cm in size set nicely up on a crystallized golden marcasite matrix. One small clean crystal present on the back of the piece, overall I think that the specimen is in really good condition.
