Description from the seller

A spectacular specimen from the famous Huanzala Mine in Peru, featuring countless intergrown cubic and modified cubic pyrite crystals with sharp edges and an intense, mirror-like golden luster. The crystals cover the entire piece, forming a striking 360° display that shines beautifully from every angle. Two small clusters of fine, white to translucent quartz needles add contrast and elegance, with most of the quartz crystals well-terminated. A highly aesthetic and perfectly balanced piece — a true show specimen that embodies the brilliance and geometry for which Huanzala pyrite is world-renowned.
