Octahedral Fluorite crystals which Galena, Pyrite and Quartz on the surfaces. The Fluorite is essentially colorless with a light gray tint In places it was a yellow/tan color due to the inclusion of an unidentified, golden colored material. The crystals have a small flat face where the pointed, termination usually is. These small faces have a high glossy luster in contrast to the other surfaces which have a dull luster. One can look down these small faces and see the interior of the Fluorite crystals is transparent. The Galena has an interesting, hollow habit with Pyrite and Quartz crystals within the hollow areas. Both the Galena and the Pyrite have a high, metallic luster. Some of the small, white colored Quartz crystals are double terminated.

Condition: Good

Flaws: There a few internal cleaves within some of the Fluorite crystals which in one instance produces a rainbow effect.
