Barite with Chalcopyrite, Hematite

specimen number:
8602543

location:
Pea Ridge mine, Washington Co., Missouri, USA

description:
Excellent for this old locality, large bladed crystals of barite in a cluster lightly dusted with specular crystalline hematite and crystals of chalcopyrite to 0.5 cm in size. Neat slight micro-chipping is present, however this one is in much better condition than most that have survived. Collected during the 1970s most likely, this does sits up perfectly by itself or display.
