Lot Description:Pyrite Cluster
Peru, The lovely metallic yellow shimmer of this specimen is a perfect illustration of the ages-old common name given to pyrite: fool's gold. Less like the crystal formation of gold, pyrite consists of blocky, regular crystals with fine ridged faces, clustered together. This particularly attractive specimen measures 10 x 30 x 18 cms. -
