Pyrite Sharp Brilliant Golden Cubic Crystals On Matrix Spain 6.3 Cm's 161 Grams

Description: The pyrite specimens from Spain showcase the incredible beauty of nature and the perfect geometric, cubic formations found within our earth. While Pyrite is not a rare mineral, with over 43,000 locations reported on Mindat, the Spanish pyrites are often taken for granted. Pedro Ansorama Garret obtained the rights to explore and prospect the Victoria Mine In 1965. By the early 70s, they began mining and producing mineral specimens[1]. Pedro (Sr) passed the mine on to his son, Pedro Ansorena Conde.To this day, the family-owned and operated mine has been continuously producing top-quality, collector-grade specimens. The Victoria Mine holds tremendous economic value for industrial ore mining. It is estimated to have nearly one million tons of iron sulfide. However, Pedro, a mineral enthusiast, wanted to share the beauty of Pyrite specimens with others.[2] We would not have had access to some of the finest Pyrite examples if they had mined for ore instead. These pyrites have a stunning, mirror-like luster and metallic golden color, sharp cubic formation perched in a host of matrix The pyrite's from Spain are some of the most desired and distinguished for the species. A well-known locality amongst many collectors. Two bright metallic golden yellow cubic crystals on matrix. The largest pyrite crystal is 2.0 cms in size. A nice addition to any collection. This specimen is approx 6.3 by 4.6 by 4.3 cm's in size. This specimen is from: Ampliación a Victoria Mine, Navajún, La Rioja, Spain ​​​We do combined shipping on orders of two or more.
