This is a fine cluster of cleft pyrite,- pyrite from alpine clefts is much more rare and consequently sought than from most of other localities. In this case the specimen features slightly metallic lustrous golden cubes of pyrite. They are sharp and well developed. Not perfect but considering the rarity of the piece it is negligible.
