There are two very unusual, thin, flattened, highly modified, spinel twin, Galena crystals at the top of this specimen, one of which has an unusual notch along the top edge. There appear to be other similar crystals further down the specimen but they are mostly covered with druze Quartz crystals. This druze is concentrated all on the same side of the crystals and is very heavy on one side of the specimen and absent on the opposite. Also present are small cubic crystals of Galena which have a high metallic luster giving the specimen a sparkly appearance. There is also one reddish gold, small Chalcopyrite crystal.
Condition: Very Good
Flaws: The specimen has been sawn and there are saw marks on the bottom and on one side of the specimen.
