Description

A nice, rich specimen from the Rhodope Mountains with quite large well developed (long) prismatic hexagonal crystals of brown pyromorphite on quartz and sulfide matrix. The largest crystal unfortunately is not complete, looks like a contact at its top. These pyromorphites were found some years ago, there are not many left on the market. The locality is already considered as a classic one for pyromorphite.
