Description

Very nice pinkish gray group of globular baryte crystals on fluorite matrix, the baryte crystals are dotted with small crystals of what I think can be chalcopyrite, this magnificent piece comes from an old collection and unfortunately the label was destroyed and not could get more data about the site, perhaps a French collector knows its origin.
