Description

Detailed Description

This specimen features a pair of mirror-bright galena crystals. The top, smaller, crystal is complete, and the lower crystal is partial. The crystals are cubes with prominent large octahedral (triangular) faces at the corners, and some slightly hoppered growth. In excellent condition, no damage. Accompanied by sharp, transparent quartz crystals. Very nice!
