AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

A high quality specimen of iridescent pyrite from the Villabona mine. The piece features a thick ribbon of finely crystallized iridescent pyrite with a concave shape which reflects the original topology of the now dissolved matrix fragment around which it grew. An unusual specimen from this less well known Spanish locality.
