Description

Large drusy featuring tens of jet black textbook sphalerite crystals perched upon brown dolomite.
Significant and in excellent conditions, the specimen could dramatically improve with some naturalization of the rear part of the specimen, which was reduced via diamond saw (the signs of the cut do not distract from the display side).

In my personal collection since approx. 15 years.
