Geologic Desires: Aesthetic Mineral Specimens

Pyrite, Navajun, LaRioja, Spain

Impressive groups of cubic pyrite crystals in matrix from the Navajun Mine, LaRioja, Spain. Lots of variety in a wide range of prices for these fine mineral specimens.

Purchasing large quantities pays off at Tucson. I purchased many boxes of this old reliable material this year, as in the past. It sells out every year in smaller specimens so I thought I would offer some of the bigger matrix specimens this year. These are nice quality specimens, most with multiple cubes in matrix. They draw lots of attention and are a fine value.

These are beautiful display specimens which show pyrites, most often in perfect cubes, perched in high relief on a kaolin like matrix. The matrix is soft yet durable. It should not be soaked in water, however. These fine specimens are always attention getters whether at a mineral show or in your display case. They are all well represented by their photos so will require little in the way of individual descriptions. All are damage free, larger than typical pieces offered by other dealers, composed of multiple cubes and of the highest display grade. Almost all view equally well from any direction.
