About this specimen
Shangbao Mine pyrite with marmatite and quartz at 14.9 cm; a large cabinet plate the supplier's label lists at 620 g. Keep dry.
Iron sulfide with a brass-gold colour, pyrite is heavy, bright and geometrically satisfying, with striated faces on the best crystals.
Rock crystal is judged on termination quality, clarity and how the crystals sit together, and the Chinese localities have raised the bar on all three.
Shangbao Mine in Leiyang, Hunan, is a pyrite-fluorite locality known for mirror-faced pyrite, phantom fluorite and calcite.
Dimensions place it in the large cabinet range, 14.9 × 8.9 × 4.9 cm (5.87 × 3.50 × 1.93 in) and 620 g (21.9 oz). The specimen is otherwise sold in the condition shown.
