Description

Pyrite pseudomorphed after Calcite from Bulgaria! Beautiful and large specimen with glittering Pyrite crystals and minor tiny Sphalerite scattered in between the cluster. The shape of the crystallization is due to Calcite that got replaced by the Pyrite! The backside is well crystallzed as well. Very nice display piece!
