Rimshot Posted November 25, 2012 Share Posted November 25, 2012 Make a darn nice door stop Bill. Looks like he's straining to hold on to it. How much do you think it's worth Bill?Rim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nugget Shooter Posted November 25, 2012 Author Share Posted November 25, 2012 Not sure on value Rim, but I would guess one that size is pretty rare.... ? It is from Huanzala Mine, Huallanca District, Dos de Mayo Province, Peru. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red_desert Posted November 25, 2012 Share Posted November 25, 2012 I bought a pyrite crystal that looked just like it, back in....I think 1990 traveling the SW desert area. The size probably was around 3/4" wide. Mine had almost a metallic look to it, wonder if they contain any gold? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
