Semseyite with Galena, Sphalerite

specimen number:
2451612

location:
Herja Mine, Maramures Co., Romania

description:

A wonderful well crystallized example for this rare species in a large cabinet Museum size piece. The top side of this 25.0 x 20.0 x 6.0 cm matrix is covered with sparkling black lustrous sphalerite crystals. Scattered very richly across the top of this are metallic sprays of semseyite measuring as large as 1.8 cm across. Very minimal micro-chipping present, overall I find this to be in very fine condition. Such good large examples of the species are rarely seen available today. Shipping weight: 11 pounds. Ex Jordi Povill collection.
