Highly translucent golden Sphalerite crystals and curving pink Dolomite crystals create a beautiful and uncommonly good USA Sphalerite specimen. The Sphalerite has tiny attached Chalocpyrite that add sparkle. These are hard to find specimens and I've only ever had one similar (a thumbnail, specimen D464 on my website).
