Ore specimen consisting of white calcite as matrix with embedded dark silvery galena (with cubic cleavage faces) and more bronze-colored, granular arsenopyrite (see center of pic 2). Classic material from Złoty Stok (Reichenstein), Silesia, Poland.

Comes with beautiful antique label. The label means: "Bleiglanz mit Kalkspat und Arsenikalkies - Reichenstein - ?" (Galena with calcite and arsenopyrite - Reichenstein - ?). I was not able to decipher the last line of the label.
