skeletal GALENA, SPHALERITE (Ref: 22038)

9th Septemvri mine (Deveti Septemvri mine), Madan ore field, Rhodope Mts, Smolyan Oblast, Bulgaria
42mm x 29mm x 34mm
$125
Superb skeletal galena crystals from this closed mine - 9th Septemvri mine, Madan ore field, Bulgaria – the only one that makes these structures. The skeletal structure is caused by very fast growth of the mineral where the crystal faces do not have the time to be completed, because the edges grow faster than the center. It displays very attractive stepped growth, forming gorgeous terraced structures on all faces. The galena cubes are strongly matt lustrous. It is well formed and it has a sharp geometry. Some black sphalerite is seen too. In excellent condition., Overwhelming skeletal galena!,
