SOLD
Attractive and very interesting combination piece consisting of modified Galena dodecahedrons intergrown with thick plates of Pyrrhotite. The Galenas, the largest of which is about 3 cm, have good luster and occasionally modified faces. In some cases, there is incomplete growth, but that doesn't detract at all. The Pyrrhotites are an amazing .7 cm thick, and have very good luster. An important specimen from a very famous locality.
