AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Beautiful mineral specimen pairing white to cream cerussite with a substantial matrix of metallic-gray galena.
The piece exhibits a particularly aesthetic contrast between the clear cerussite crystals and the dark, shiny, crystalline surface of the galena. Several cerussite crystals are well defined and distributed across different faces of the specimen.
Galena is a lead sulfide, while cerussite is a lead carbonate that forms notably in the oxidation zones of galena deposits.
Minerals: Cerussite and Galena
Weight: 444 g
Dimensions: 9 × 6 × 5 cm
Era: natural geological formation – exact age undetermined
Condition: natural, as shown in the photographs
Dense and decorative specimen, interesting for a mineral collection or a cabinet of curiosities.
Packaging exceptionally careful and suited to the fragility of the crystal formations.
