SPHALERITE, PYRITE SPECIMEN
The name Sphalerite is from the Greek word "Sphaleros" which means deceiving.
ALL PHOTOS AND VIDEO WERE TAKEN IN NATURAL DAYLIGHT
MUCH MORE IMPRESSIVE THAN THE PHOTOS REVEAL
ORIGIN : MADAN, BULGARIA
Madan, in the Rhodope Mountains of Bulgaria, just north of the frontier with Greece, is an ancient ore-miners’ settlement. The history of mining in the Madan region extends back at least as far as the Thracians in the fifth century B.C. where the extraction of lead ore began.
A wonderful example from the Madan ore field in Bulgaria consisting of a cluster of the highly sought after black Sphalerite crystals along with Iridescent Pyrite. Specimen has a nice luster. Specimen is very interesting under magnification as there are features to explore, spot and view the well formed tetrahedral Sphalerite crystals close up and view the delightful bright rainbow colors that most Pyrite cubes exhibit at different angles. Although crystals are obvious to the naked eye, specimen requires magnification in order to enjoy the range of interesting structures. Will be an interesting addition to any rock and mineral collection.
