Quartz with Sphalerite, Calcite
specimen number:
2091042
location:
Durango, Mexico
description: The top side of this 6.0 x 5.0 x 3.5 cm matrix is scattered with crystals of quartz to 1.3 cm in size. Calcite and small crystals of pyrrhotite are present as well. Previous label says that this has wulfenite, but I cannot find it. I think the previous label noted pyrite mistaking the pyrrhotite for this. Shipping weight: 0.33 pounds.
Size: 6.0 x 5.0 x 3.5 cm (miniature)
