Pyrite on Quartz (M105)
A sparkling undamaged complete sphere of Pyrite perched on snowy white, milky Quartz crystals. The Quartz crystals are all sharp terminated, lustrous and undamaged (except the edges of the piece). The sphere is incredible - 94mm across! This material is very rare and hard to obtain. It was found in the 90ties, today the locality is defunct and even 2 decades ago it was rare and from only small discoveries with a limited number of good pieces.
