Description from the seller

For sale is an impressive, massively crystallized mineral cabinet-sized display piece.
This heavy showstopper (about 3 kg) captivates with its fascinating combination of three different minerals that have grown together in a tight space (paragenesis). The base is a hard blue-white quartz on which attractive crystals have grown.

Details & Highlights:

• Minerals: blue-tinged quartz (main matrix), beige dolomite (crystallized growth), and chalcopyrite (copper iron sulfide).
• Optics: Notably, the metallic-gold luster of the chalcopyrite, which pops beautifully in the light and lends the piece an elegant character.
• Color: A very aesthetic interplay of cool blue-white, warm beige, and metallic gold.
• Size: A genuine XXL piece for collectors or as an exclusive decorative object.

Dimensions & Weight:
• Weight: 2930 g
• Length: 19 cm
• Width: 12 cm
• Height: 14 cm

Condition:
Natural find condition, very massive and stable. The crystals are well preserved and show the typical growth structures. The piece stands securely and is excellent for presentation in a display cabinet or on a sideboard.
