Description

A fascinating specimen from a classic Irish locality consisting of grey silicified limestone with veins of golden pyrite associated with white baryte. The pyrite is unusual in that it displays a colliform habit with nice terminations where the vein space allowed. Unfortunately it is quite heavy so shipping outside the UK is a bit higher than I would normally charge.
