Collector's Piece: Iridescent Pyrite on Dolomite from Shangbao Mine

Dimension: 6.8cm x 4.8cm x 3.6cm

Weight: 125g

Locality: Shangbao Mine, Leiyang Co., Hengyang, Hunan, China

 

A fine and sculptural cabinet Dolomite plate covered with sharp, highly lustrous Pyrite cubes from the well-known Shangbao Mine of China.  From a one-time small find discovered in September 2020, these gorgeous pieces are three dimentional and unique.  I've been lucky to be able to acquire around 15 pieces of the best.  The rainbow iridescent colors on the Pyrite are insane, ranging from very bright vivid lemon-gold to blue, red and pink, outstanding!  Grown on a creamy yellow Dolomite matrix, it is for sure a winning display piece for connoisseur collectors!

 

Price inclusive of a high quality display stand made of pure copper and acrylic.
