Complex Sphalerite crystals with very well defined faces and edges, with an intense and uniform honey color, food transparency and on a matrix with white Dolomite crystals. The specimens from Las Mánforas, increasingly hard to get, are already a Spanish mineralogical classic. This one is a great example in excellent condition and very good size.
