Lustrous, brassy octahedral crystals of Pyrite with small crystals of Chalcopyrite that have psuedomorphed after Enargite crystals. The psuedomorphs are well formed and reach 7mm tall.  An excellent example of this type of psuedomorph, especially with the addition of the large bright octahedrons of Pyrite.
