Description

One of the most classic baryte localities for continental Europe is Dreislar. This specimen is as classic as it gets. Over two dozens of chalcopyrite crystals perched on top of white baryte chisel crystals, arranged as little rounded fans. Chalcopyrite is golden in color, with locally blueish tarnish and excellent lustre. Baryte crystals are moderately lustrous.

A very well balanced miniature from this classic locality, with a high amount of chalcopyrite crystals.

Former collection Lehmann (CH).
