Pyrite
Siglo Veinte Mine (Siglo XX Mine; Llallagua Mine; Catavi), Llallagua, Rafael Bustillo Province, Potosi Department, Bolivia
Small Cabinet, 7.0 x 7.0 x 5.0 cm
SOLD
The Siglo XX mine is probably best known for it's phosphate species, but there are some very attractive Pyrite specimens that come out from time to time. This piece is a rather aesthetic piece featuring several relatively sharp, lustrous, slightly modified cubic crystals of Pyrite forming a somewhat spherical-shaped specimen. This piece is essentially a "floater" as I cannot find any true point of attachment. This specimen is from a find made in March of 2005.
