Pyrrhotite with Quartz and Sphalerite
Dalnegorsk, Kavalerovo Mining District
Primorsky Kray, Russia
4.9 x 4.3 x 3.4 CM (miniature)
price: $320
new year 2021
Nicely composed miniature from the great Dalnegorsk deposits, ex Charles M. Noll collection. The Pyrrhotite crystal is perfectly perched, the wide terminal face is a brassy, slightly subdued hue and the edges are a brilliant golden with mirror bright luster. In perfect condition with no damage seen even with magnification. There have been many good Pyrrhotites found at Dalnegorsk yet it can be hard to find a miniature with standout quality and esthetics. Better in person.
