Description

This specimen is something special. The matrix consists of high quality sphalerite and galena. Both minerals are very well crystallized with high luster and typical stucture. The highlight of this item is the fluorite. It is crystallized very unusual for the locality. The crystals are in very good condition, some are almost transparent. The specimen is very hard to photograph, the high contrast makes it not easy to show the light and the dark minerals the right way. So expect a specimen that is even better in person.
