Siderite and Sphalerite ps. Calcite (Ref: SYP25-32)

Broken Hill Mine, Aggeneys, Namakwa Dist. Mun., Northern Cape, South Africa
50mm x 50mm x 40mm
$3000
This is a Siderite and Sphalerite ps. Calcite from Broken Hill Mine, Aggeneys, Namakwa Dist. Mun., Northern Cape, South Africa. From a relatively small find in 2006 from the Broken Hill Mine (misleadingly labeled as the Aggeneys Mine when they were first brought out) in South Africa, these unusual crystals are actually hollow casts after calcite that are epimorphic shells comprised of a mixture of mixture of siderite and sphalerite (some spots are more one or the other, depending on where you look).
