Magnetite crystals are often seen associated with the Apatite on matrix specimens, but I've never before seen crystals this large, let alone loose single, complete crystals.

This a great Pyrite from anywhere, but the Greek locality makes it even more special. There are some minor chips here and there, but overall in really good condition.
B783 - Microcline $ 120 (=~ € 110) SOLD Hirukawa, Honshu Island, Japan miniature - 4.5 x 1.8 x 1.5 cm Two specimens of twinned Microcline crystals. Neat pieces out an old collection.
B784 - Sulfur $ 400 (=~ € 365) SOLD Cianciana Mine, Agrigento, Italy small cabinet - 5.5 x 2.5 x 2.5 cm Elongated single crystal on Sulfur. The crystal itself is 3cm tall and highly gemmy, more gemmy and yellow than the photos convey. The elongated shape is characteristic for this mine. The matrix is a broken shard of crystalline Sulfur, but the crystal itself is complete and undamaged. The amount of matrix could of course be easily reduced to further highlight the crystal.
