GALENA - Joplin Field, Jasper, Missouri, USA
This specimen features crystallized galena from the historic mining district of Joplin in Jasper County, USA. The piece revolves around an imposing summit crystal with remarkably defined cuboctahedral shapes. It features a powerful lead-gray metallic sheen, magnified on several sides by superb multicolored natural iridescence with bluish, golden and purple reflections. The base of the specimen is formed by a tangle of secondary crystals dotted with very shimmering micro-sulfur inclusions. With its high density of 180 grams for a compact size, this piece offers a superb geometric relief and a perfect visual presence in the window. A great classic of American mineralogy.
