Sphalerite with Galena

Unknown Owner
Choice combination specimen from this old famous mining district. Complex lustrous crystals of sphalerite to 3.5 cm in size are perched nicely up on bright lustrous crystals of galena. Some of the smaller sphalerite crystals are red in color and show translucency. This is crystallized all around and in very good condition. There are no points of attachment.
