This outstanding Realgar specimen is from the find in late 2005 from the 280 meter level at the No. 5 Mine at Baia Sprie. This amazing find produced a limited amount of Realgar specimens and they are considered to be among the best ever found at this classic locality. Maybe one hundred, beautiful, bright, saturated red prismatic crystals of realgar to 2.3 cm in length are profusely scattered upon this cabinet specimen and the crystals contrast well with the light gray matrix. The Realgar crystals are all translucent to almost transparent in places and also exhibit bright red internal reflections. The display side of this piece is just stunning with shocking red Realgar crystals distributed in loose groups and tighter jumbled clusters of crystals. However, the clusters are not too tightly clustered so that their great prismatic crystal form is obvious and the light gray matrix is apparent within and around the crystals. This cabinet piece is very clean of damage with only a few broken crystals amidst many. This is very choice for the species from this now closed and famous locality! Like all Realgar specimens, this should be preserved in a dark environment, only exposed to light for short periods of time for viewing.
