Description

The specimen is much more 3-dimensional as you can see on the photos.

The main crystal is about 5 x 5 x 4,5cm – that is large, even for Cavnic! The faces show metallic luster.

The two golden chalcopyrite on the left side are 2.5 and 2cm in diameter, that is also a remarkable dimension.

Overall in a fine condition and a upcomming-classic.
