Brassy, metallic Pyrite crystals and transparent green Tsavorite crystals on a Graphite matrix. The Pyrite crystals reach 1.5cm in size and are undamaged. The Graphite crystals are also bladed and well formed. The backside show an area of dense, intergrown Tsavorite. Great example of many species from this mine.
