This unusual Sphalerite with Quartz tower has dark grey and silver tones with natural crystal pockets and golden iron-rich areas throughout. The polished surface reveals layers of the mineral while leaving some of the druzy quartz formations exposed. Each side is quite different, with small cavities, sparkling quartz and contrasting darker sections.Approximate measurements - 11.3cm x 3.5cm, 193gLocalitiesSpain, Mexico, United States, BrazilSphalerite forms from hot, mineral-rich hydrothermal fluids moving through fractures and cavities in rock.
