RM2841   Pyrite, sphalerite and crandallite

Group of octahedral pyrite crystals, very brilliant and well defined, which are accompanied by complex crystals of sphalerite.

RM838   Tetrahedrite with sphalerite
More photos

A very rich group of tetrahedrite crystals with an intense metallic luster and deep black color, with well defined faces and edges. Faces show complex growth and some vertices are truncated by opposite tetrahedron faces. They are accompanied by groups of sphalerite crystals, complex forms, easily distinguished by its grayish dull sheen.
